How can I change URL Bar settings back after FF83 update? Bookmarks & History show up inside URL bar. Also have to click twice when switching between search engines
- After I updated to Firefox 83, my bookmark and history shortcuts now up inside the URL bar instead of next to it (Picture 1) (I know this is part of the new update 83, how can I change this back?)
- Additional settings for the URL bar show up (as they should) after I go to a new website. Usually these options are always there (Picture 2) However, all these options disappear (Picture 3) as soon as I type anything in the URL bar and these settings won't return until I open a new tab and go to a website.
- Lastly, when switching between search engines I know have to click the search engine and then also click enter to complete the switch. (I know this can be 'solved' shift+clicking, but I would prefer for it not to take an extra action and revert back the old pre FF-83 way)
Does anyone have any how I can change it back? - Either by reverting back to FF82, or by using about:config

Change these about:config settings
browser.urlbar.update2.disableOneOffsHorizontalKeyNavigation = false Lets you select the search engine using the left/right arrow keys.
browser.urlbar.update2.localOneOffs = false Hides the new Bookmarks/Tabs/History search buttons.
browser.urlbar.update2.oneOffsRefresh = false Lets you start searches like before, with just 1 click.

Hi
When you post a reply that contains external links then this reply needs to be examined and approved by a moderator as an anti-spam feature, so there can be a delay before this reply appears.
Note that browser.urlbar.update prefs are only temporary available during development and may stop working at any time in future Firefox releases once a new feature is working as expected.
So if I understand it correctly, once Firefox decides to delete certain prefs in the about:config section all the changes will revert back to 'default'. In this case, the URL bar will work in a way that I do not find pleasant.
Is there anything I can do about this right now, in order to make the changes permanent in some way? I really hope there is a solution to this as I like the way the URL bar worked in FF82 much better.
