Firefox added a bloated searchbar that takes up too much space when I type into it.
How do I stop it from appearing please? It's the address bar.. field. I don't know what to call it, english is not my native language. I just want it to remain small and static like it always did. Now it becomes a huge field that takes up too much space and blocks my vision and I just want it to disappear.
I wish Firefox would stop changing stuff like this.

I tried deleting the file, and while the crappy top bar disappeared, I am now getting a dropdown menu when typing into the search/adress bar on top. How do I turn this off?
EDIT: Found the culprit: browser.urlbar.maxRichResults needs to be set to 0 for the search bar to stop being a nuisance.

Are you using code in userChrome.css that is broken and needs an update? This could be a problem with code in userChrome.css that is broken and needs an update. You can check if there is an update available from its creator, there might be a link in the code where you can get the latest version.
You can set this pref to false in about:config to disable userChrome.css and userContent.css.
- about:config => toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets => false
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox
I have put some commands into user.js; turning off other stuff that I do not like about the browser, so disabling userChrome.css is not an option.
Could you explain a bit more clearly about updating it please? I don't understand anything in the link you posted. I do not see anything about updates or code linking.
Is there anything I can type in about:config or user.js that simply nukes this ugly and unnecessary creation?
Here's what my userChrome.css contains:

CSS code with the #urlbar[breakout][breakout-extend] selector is broken.
