Help! I click on Options, and I get Search Settings!

Starting this morning, "Options" gets me "Search Settings"!

An ongoing problem that complicates this is that the Options box is too large for the screen. This happens on different sized laptops. Either the tabs at the top of the box, or the buttons at the bottom, are cut off. In this case, I can't see the top of the Search Settings box either.

But I still want to get to the Options!!

Thanks, Andre'a

Resolved. Sort of. The Options box grows in size and re-opens larger and larger each time. And then suddenly gets smaller again. There must be some logic to this madness.

But now my default text is not working.

You can consider to use the about:preferences page instead by setting browser.preferences.inContent to true on the about:config page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
