Your screenshot shows Yahoo ticked and selected as the default search engine. Your only other listed alternative is Googles so please try selecting that.

Hi farrbar, Sorry you are having problems.

What is it you are deleting ? Which search is the problem ? For instance, location bar, homepage or the bar on a new tab.

You are able to select temporarily to use an an alternative search engine. You are also able to select from the search engines available and set one as the default. Whatever you choose as the default search engine for the search bar is normally used for all other Firefox searches.

By default the search engine for most locales | languages was Google. Now that has changed and for instance on English-USA it will be Yahoo, unless you choose otherwise.

If you are unable to choose and permanently change the Search Engine it may indicate you have: some odd addon or toolbar; adware, or malware on your computer.

If you continue to have problems a screenshot of the problem search type may help
