Hi, When F'fox starts it goes to 'https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl'. My home page/newtab url set to 'https://www.google.co.uk' about:config settings are also 'https://www.google.co.uk' This is second time this has happened in past couple of years. I cannot remember how I resolved it last time and nothing on web works. I do not want to install adware removal software. I am in UK using Windows 7 Home Premium, Firefox 47, How do i get rid of this. Your help would be greatly appreciated

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. Remove Google Anything. Now do the same in the computers Programs Folder.

Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. Linux: Check your user manual.


After the problem is fixed, Bookmark and use this; Download the Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
