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

Change your default search engine - Microsoft Support

When you enter something in the address bar in Microsoft Edge, you’ll see results from Bing. Microsoft recommends Bing for the best performance with Windows 10. Bing gives instant help for Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge (just like this). And Bing links search
results with some Windows 10 apps. But Microsoft Edge uses OpenSearch technology, so you can change the default search engine. Here’s how:

• 
  Enter the search engine’s website and browse to it.
  
• 
  Select More actions (...) > Settings and then scroll down to select View
  advanced settings. In the list under Search in the address bar with, choose Add new.
  
• 
  Select the website and then select Add as default.
  
  • 
    Note: Only search providers that support the OpenSearch standard will appear in this list. If they don’t support it yet,here's how
    they can."
