After installing Brave search engine, Firefox does not list the Brave search engine as a choice option in the settings search engine drop down. Why?

Hi grichardson, I assume you added the Brave Search extension from Firefox Browser Add-ons at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/brave-search/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search Be sure that the extension is Enabled in Add-ons and Themes. It should appear in both the Default Search Engine drop down and Search Shortcuts. If you still have issues, I recommend removing and re-installing the add-on.

Can I use the Brave search engine in my Firefox browser? I don't want to change the browser unless forced to do so.
