Steps to reproduce:

Just open the browser and search with Bing.

Actual results:

Only one page of results shows even if it states there are 31,600,000 results and there are no next or page links at the bottom of the page. All other browsers work as expected.

Expected results:

Show all returned search results.

Thanks for reporting!
Tested on macOS 11.6 using Firefox 96 and Nightly 98.0a1. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to reproduce this situation.

Can you tell me the region you're using by checking the value from browser.search.region in about:config? Can you tell me if you're at a different location than the one you're using? Do you use a VPN?

Can you also test the issue while in Safe Mode? You can find helpful info here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode.
A fresh new profile could help as well. You can find more about creating a new profile here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems#w_6-create-a-new-firefox-profile.
If possible, provide a screenshot/screen recording of the issue.

Moving this to: Firefox > Search, if this is not the right component, please move it to a more appropriate one.

Hello,
The browser.search.region is US. I tried creating a new profile before reporting the issue and it did not work, neither did reinstalling, or installing a previous version with a new profile. Safe mode did not help either. Funny thing is that after I reported the issue, I went back to the computer I use FireFox on and it suddenly started displaying all results again. I replaced the new profile with my old profile, and it is still working now. I am at a loss as to why it started working again all of a sudden. When I had the issue, it was only with Bing on FireFox, not Google, not Duck Duck Go,and not Bing with Edge or Chrome.

I believe this is a duplicate of Bug 1744608 and I'm marking it accordingly.
Thanks!
