Is it possible to change the search, the default?
Good day, dear bloggers!

You, of course, you know that in Firefox search function is integrated into the address bar, i.e., writing in the address bar of the right word, you are kindly provide search results.
But the trouble is that sometimes when you enter a query instead of a list of results appears right site.
Though not often, but it happens, if the request is transmitted Google option “Search without URL” and thus, if there is a match, the search engine opens a suitable web-page.
And more.
English User default search engine is Yandex.
I also like Google and more, I believe many of you - too.


Is it possible to change the search, the default and make sure that every time you enter a query we get a full list of results?
Yes, you can, so let us now try to correct these misunderstandings.

Step 1

Further, in the Filter field recruit keyword.URL.

Step 2

A window opens Enter a value (string).

Indeed, everything just like an orange!

Step 5
