Firefox address bar Bookmarks = Incredibly Annoying!
I’m sure there are some users who find this useful, but considering I have, literally, a hundred+ bookmarks and I get to see this every time I enter in any character, it’s really annoying.
For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about…
Well intentioned, but annoying for me
I keep all of them organized into folders so I always find what I’m looking for. This was really unnecessary for me.
So how to turn it off?
Go to your about config > search for urlbar > select browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped and set it to true.
In about:config, find browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped and set it to true
There… Problem solved!
Like I said before, there are plenty of people who would find this useful. But I’m not one of them. I’m sure a lot of others out there aren’t either.
Update
On second thought, that number of a hundred+ bookmarks may be slightly off…
Here is a list of those folders..
I didn’t really take a moment to glance at this
And a few samples within… Yes, there are folders within folders
Design related bookmarks
Electronics related bookmarks
Upon closer inspection, the actual number may be several hundred to a thousand bookmarks.
Each folder has about the same number of links in them… Yikes!
