I open Firefox and then put in the words I wanted to search for. I hit enter and the search words disappeared. I repeated it several times using a variety of search words. Same thing. Restarted the computer, reset Firefox. Still not performing searches.

hello StewartFloyd, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

You are sure you used the search bar and not the address bar?
