Get rid of address bar search
I like to set my home page to my search engine, and I want to type on the page in the nice long search field there, not on the d---d address bar! The following preferences have all been offered as fixes to eliminate searching in the address bar, but none of them are currently working for me in FF 102.0.1:
Do about:config; search for the browser.urlbar.suggest.searches preference setting it to false.
Also browser.fixup.alternate.enabled needs to be set to false Also browser.urlbar.oneOffSearches = false
Also to disable searching when typing an address (e.g. the URI fails to resolve and it tries to use a search engine) turn keyword.enabled to false.
What does work?
