"w" key opens ctrl+f search bar

Current problem is the following:

Whenever i press the "w" key a search bar opens in the bottom of my browser. This is the search also accessed by ctrl + f. I need this gone since it bothers my ability to use the browser. I cant find it being a keybind from firefox or duckduckgo so i really wonder what caused this.

Just figured out it wasnt just the 'w' key and there was in fact a setting for this. my apologies

EDIT: just noticed this is the exact same as pressing /, so pressing 'w' will open quick search for some reason
