Automatically Finding in Page
Whenever I press a key on my keyboard (except when I'm typing) it starts finding the letter I pressed in the page I'm currently in. So whenever I press a hotkey on a website, it starts finding that letter instead of doing what that key was supposed to. I'm pretty sure this is a new feature because I never had this problem before.

If the 'find as you type' feature is enabled then the Quick Find bar opens if you press any key.
- Settings -> General -> Browsing -> Search for text when you start typing

The normal Find bar should only open via "Ctrl+F" (press ESC to close the Find bar if it has focus).
