Windows 10: Can't use the back button to go back to Google Search Results.

Can't use the back button to go back to Google Search Results. Any fix? We notice this in Seamonkey 2.40 I also read this is kind of an on going problem but couldn't find a solution that why I am asking here. I read it has happen in Firefox, Internet Explorer and ironically Google Chrome. I don't know if this happens in Opera (Chrome engine) or Palemoon (Non gecko engine) current versions. Doesn't matter what operating system I am using. Windows 7, 10 or Linux.

How to go back to the search results page in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

I appreciate your interest on windows 10.

I understand your concern and will help you with the issue.

Before we proceed, I would like you to answer the following question:

• How you are searching ? Is it through a start menu or through a web browser?

If you are searching, then back option is available on both IE and Edge.

And if you are searching through a start menu, then go back to the previous application is not possible.I also suggest you to check the article below and check if it helps:

How to go back to the search results page in Windows 10

Thank you much for you reply. I am searching through search box on the task bar and wondering how to return to the search results list page having just executed and got before. As I used to do in Windows 8.1, I could search via search charm and go
back to the search results page by moving pointer to top-left corner and click. (ref: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/search-apps-files-settings)

 

google has released a fix for this. there is an extension - 'go back with back space' and it works!!!
Go Back With Backspace - Chrome Web Store

Thank you, but that not what I meant but that I might still install that. In Seamonkey, when doing a google search. After, I click a link. I can't use the back button to go back to the google search results list it will go back to google home page or google search results that is blank or not go back at all. Yes, instant results are turned off. I read this effects Firefox & maybe other browsers. I was posting here in case there was a fix. It doesn't matter what operating system you are using either.

 

Just found this thread. I have the same problem with Microsoft Edge.

Is there a solution? Or are we waiting for Microsoft to fix?

 

I've just had this in Internet Explorer, so it seems to be independent of the browser you use. I've also found that it only happens for certain sites. For some search results you can go back, others you can't. It's also difficult to reproduce. A slightly different set of search terms can throw up the same link to the same site that had problems previously, but one from which you can go back.
