Duck Duck Go has gone missing from the search function on my Windows 10 desktop and is now showing 'Search with Google or enter address.' I do NOT want to search with Google. How can I get Duck Duck Go back?

Firefox isn't Windows 10 O/S system so not sure what your referring to here. If you want different search engine you need to setup the search engine defaults.

Firefox by default uses standard installed search engine there is no firefox search engine.

On the Search page of Settings > Default Search Engine : change to DDG. If you don't have DDG, add it.
