Make google/wikipedia/bing as Default

In order to change the default search engine or the order of search engines in the top right search box in Firefox, please perform the following steps:

1. Move the mouse cursor inside the search box at the top right of the Firefox window and click the down arrow next to the provider's logo.
2. If you would like to select another search engine, simply pick the engine from the dropdown list.

In order to change the order of the search engines, do this:

1. From the dropdown list, select Manage Search Engines....
2. In the upcoming window, you have all your search engines listed. To change the order, simply click one search engine and then select Move up or Move down from the buttons on the right side in order to change the order of the search engines.

Is this problem new in Firefox 19, or did you have this problem in the released version of Firefox?

Removing a factory default search engine plugin from the list probably doesn't actually delete it. My guess is that it simply updates a settings file in your profile folder. Have you noticed any other issues with settings changes not being saved?

Try to delete the search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
