After update 63.0.3 the 'Enter' button no longer works when tabbing to 'I'm feeling lucky'.

Has this been disabled for some reason?

Any ideas please?

Try to press the Space bar instead, that works for me.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Hello socialphobia,

Could it be that in 3-bar menu (or Tools) => Options => Privacy & Security => under 'Address Bar' you have unchecked all three options  ? If so : would you check at least one option and see if that will make the Enter key work again  ?

I always have a clear cache.

I've always have all boxes unticked under address bar too.

This is a new issue after updating to 63.0.3, strangle enough though, pressing the spacebar works.

Many thanks for all your suggestions guys, it was really appreciated.

Too bad that having one checked isn't an option .....

Would you be so kind as to mark cor-el's post as Chosen Solution  ? (button to the right of that post)

Thank you in advance  !
