    Changing search engines . . .

    Hi, I am Van. I'll be glad to assist you today.

    You will need to add the Yahoo search engine extension before setting it as the default search engine. Kindly follow the steps below.

    1. Open the Firefox browser then click the three-line menu at upper right corner of the browser then select "Add-ons and themes.

    2. Type "Yahoo search engine" without the quote in the search bar.

    3. Select "Search and New Tab by Yahoo" from the list then click the Add to Firefox button.

    4. Once done, go to the default search engine option. Yahoo should now be on the list.

    Best regards,

    Van
