My default search browser is Google. Now after today's updates, no matter what I do Firefox is using Bing. I hate Bing and will not use it. If my default browser is Google, why is it using Bing now? Please help I love Firefox.

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 “ Bing “ Anything. Now do the same in the computer’s Programs Folder.

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