I am not entirely sure what you have done. the Firefox reset should not remove the search engines. Please post a screenshot, maybe that will help. * [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]] Make sure that the navigation toolbar is visible. (Could you be looking instead at the bookmarks toolbar ? ) *[[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]] * or have some odd toolbar accidentally installed <br /> [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]] When you do get back to normal (Which could involve another reset) the instructions for the search bar search engines are here: *[[Search bar - Easily choose your favorite search engine]]

Thanks John99, I updated to version 18 and that fixed the problem. George
