There used to be a search bar to the right of the address bar. You could select search engines and get suggestions. Not on my version 56.0. Has it been eliminated? Can I get it back?

Hi  !

This could be caused by an extension that is part of a Mozilla experiment.

Without even knowing it, you may have volunteered for this Mozilla experiment, called 'Shield studies'

Would you please go to :

Options => Privacy & Security => under 'Data Collection and Use' :

Did you uncheck : 'Allow Firefox to install and run studies' or is it checked  ?

To check if you are enrolled in these studies :

Type in the address bar about:studies

Any extensions that you see listed there, you can either disable or remove.

For further information see : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/shield
