URL-bar issue (Midori always "swallows" first character of input)
Hello community,
always when I want to enter a website by opening a (blank) browser tab and typing an URL, the first character gets highlighted automatically and thus overwritten by the second character, e.g. entering "abc.de" results in "bc.de". I found this annoying bug in Linux and in Windows. How can I solve this issue?
Best regards
HP
