But that is exactly what is happening if you press Ctrl+F in a topic with lots of posts. Try it out yourself by pressing it inside a topic with more than 20 posts.

And it is good that this is happening since I want to be able to search using my browser. It has a better search experience. My problem right now is that the Discourse search window stays visible and I get lots of search results from the browser that are within Discourse’s search results. See my screenshot in the [first post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/pressing-ctrl-f-twice-on-topic-search-should-close-the-discourse-search-window/19649).
