FF 44 b8 - Search box has to be added after restart

[Galvin]

Not sure when this started happening. But everytime I restart firefox. I have to add the search box back to the bar.

When I restart with all addons disabled it doesn't go away. But when I disable all addons one at a time, the search box goes away after restart.

I didn't see that when I restarted after the update from 44.0b7.

So I have to try disabling all of my extensions one at a time, and see if the search bar goes away after a restart.

Extension #1 disabled, will restart and edit this post.

EDIT: Most of my extensions are restart-less, only 3 required a restart. After disabling each and restarting, the search bar remained visible after each restart. That would be a total of 8 restarts.

See if one is listed for you in about:support

I see it listed as experiments under about:addons.

Thanks

My guess is they're trying to make the URL bar a search bar as well.

Long term the Address bar will likely be the Only search bar.....
