After a recent update, Firefox somehow stopped showing me the https:// part of the URL.
I’m not sure how, but if the same has happened to you, go to about:config and search for browser.urlbar.trimURLs and make sure that’s set to false.
https:// is back. 🙂

@donncha Thank you!
@donncha Did I miss something? My Firefox stopped showing the protocol part of the URL about six years ago.
@M_E_ST mine did too but I restored it with that setting. It's weird that it flipped on me.
@donncha Oh! So the real message is that Firefox changes this setting automatically during an update. Not so good.
@donncha Worked like a champ! Thanks!
@donncha This doesn’t work in the Android version unfortunately. (Using both Fennec F-Droid and IronFox 152.0.6)
@job interesting. I'm using Firefox from the play store and it shows the protocol when I select and copy the URL by long pressing on it. I don't remember if I had to change any setting to do that.
