Every time i search google, i get results in bing. i see solutions listed for windows but have not seen anything for a mac. i am using sierra, have done a search for bing as well as conduit in my programs with nothing coming up.

any help is greatly appreciated as this is most annoying.

Keazen oplossing

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing the problem by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via *"3-bar" menu button -> Exit (Power button)

  • Windows: File -> Exit
  • Mac: Firefox -> Quit Firefox
  • Linux: File -> Quit
