Google search uses blue links but purple for sites visited. It's hard to tell the colors apart. How can I change the visited sites to a different color like red. Windows 10.

There are add-ons that can change how a web page is displayed, including the color of the links.

Hi Rob. I've included a link below to a page that explains everything Firefox can do to change how text and hyperlinks appear on web pages. This affects how Firefox displays all web pages, not just Google. You'll need to locate a third party theme or add-on if you desire modification of Google only. I hope that helps.
