Yahoo search engine


Hi

This probably, strictly speaking, a Windows 10 issue but, hopefully, someone out there can help me. Somehow I seem to have acquired a Yahoo search engine that keeps appearing in my Firefox browser. Can anyone tell me a foolproof way of deleting it? I have tried all the conventional ways but the program doesn't appear in the program list, nor does it appear when I do a search on the computer (via the bottom left hand panel). Any suggestions?

 

Change Default Search Engine in Microsoft Edge in Windows 10


This way of setting the default search engine in Edge worked fine until yesterday. Now even though I have selected StartPage as my default search engine via:

• Settings
• Advanced settings (View Advanced Settings)
• search in the address bar with (change search engine)

It no longer works properly. Instead, it includes Yahoo and tries to force most searches via Yahoo. How do I get rid Yahoo? Do I need to totally remove it as a search engine option?
