How can I change the search engine bar from google.de to google.be

I work in a German firm with an office in Belgium. Our Server is located in our headoffice in Germany, but my computer is bought and installed in Belgium. My Firefox is in Dutch. So why does the search engine bar always use google.de for my search results? I want to change this to google.be. If I want to customize my search engine options, I can only select google, but it does not specify which country.

Hi, thanks for the response. Maybe I didn't understand your solution quite right. If you just go to the browser-page and then select google as your search engine, it was still the German version. Meanwhile it did gave me the idea to search for google.be in the add-ons. That version seems to exist as a separate add-on and that does the trick.

Thanks!

Hi, try going to the Google address you want to use, then set it as the search engine: Add or remove a search engine in Firefox
