The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Address Bar' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Attachment: search field specification required

Hello Calisun,

Could you have a look at the attach screenshot and tell us which search field you're having problems with, based on that screenshot?

If you're refering to the search field that is located in the middle of the page, please know that this the behavior introduced with the launch of Firefox 89 (the search terms are automatically handed off to the address bar).

Figured it out, issue happens when running Firefox inside Sanboxie. Will see if there is updated version of Sandboxie.
