I keep changing my browser default search engine to "Google" and it works initially. But when I close Firefox and reopen the program it defaults back to "Browser Default." How do I make the change stick?

Is 'Browser Default' the name of something?


Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)

In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Make sure you know what each one is and what it does.


Type about:preferences#search<enter> in the address bar. You can select any search engine to be your default from here.

You can also remove any engine from here.

Browser Default - is what the option lists. It is always Yahoo! I will delete Browser Default as an option and change it to another search engine and it will work until I completely close out of the program. When I re-open Firefox It will have Browser Default selected as the search engine and using Yahoo when I had chose another search engine prior to closing the program.

Run most or all of the listed free to use malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.
