I beleive in the recent versions of Firefox, shortcut keys have been added/changed such that holding the Option key while in the URL Search bar activates other functions (Switching search engines: Option + Up/Down Arrow) and completely disables my ability to move left or right through the URL by word.

Is there any way I can disable this shortcut key combination?

once in a while firefox forces me to double click everything. This does not apply to the top of the window: tabs, URL bar, bookmarks toolbar, extensions all work fine. But everything in the webpage requires a double click. This includes selecting text. A restart makes it go away.

The only extensions I had in use when this happened were uBlock origin, proton pass, and SponsorBlock. Switching into troubleshoot mode fixed it, but after switching back into normal mode it was still fixed, so I can't say that the extensions cause the issue.

I would have just commented on [this related thread](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1038784), but it's archived. I never understood the point of archiving a thread. From now until the end of time when people find that thread when googling their issue, there's no way to give them new information. At least in a github issue it can still include a link to other threads that have mentioned it.

I am running firefox 132.0.2 (aarch64) on macos 15.0 (24A335).
