Title: Forced to use FireFox 34.
Post by: Geek-9pm on December 22, 2014, 12:10:22 AM

Firefox 34 doers something I do not like. So Install 28 and got it back the way I like it. But just now it reverted back to version 324. Why am I being force to use a version I do not like?
Specifically, the search bar no longer  makes it easy to change engines. I want it the way it was. Like it used to be.   :'(

I'm on FireFox 35 and can easily change the search engine, try upgrading.

The web browser is one of the most important applications to keep updated.  There are constantly different flaws found in browsers that the updates patch, it is not just about the user interface.

Changing search engines in Firefox 34 seems easy enough to me, I can't actually see any difference to how it used to be, it's just a drop down to the left of the search box.

For Cosme reason it does not work right for me in version 34.
Just found that version 33.1 worlds the way I want.
Thank you all. I am going to lock out auto update for now.
