Windows 10 - Search in Address Bar choice reverting back to Bing

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We appreciate your effort on this. However, in order to assist you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps, we will need the details requested below:

• When you say, “Search in Address Bar” are you referring to the search bar of a browser?
  
• In Which browser are you facing this issue?
  
• We would like to know the troubleshooting steps that you have tried so far?
  

If you're using Windows 10 in S mode, Microsoft Edge is always the default web browser, and Bing is the default search engine. But you can access other browsers and search engines while in S mode. You can download any browser available in the Microsoft
Store in Windows, and you can navigate to any other search engine website.



However, if you are not using Windows 10 in S Mode, then you can try to change the default search engine. Refer the steps mentioned in the article

Change your default search engine and check if that helps.



If you are using Edge browser, you can try to reset Edge. Before resetting Microsoft Edge, we would suggest you to take a backup of the Favorites. Follow the steps to take a backup:

1. Open Microsoft Edge.
   
2. Click on the Ellipsis (…) on the top right corner.
   
3. Under General, click on Import or export.
   
4. Now, click on Export to file and select the location where you want to export the file.
   
5. To Import the favorites, follow the steps from
   1 to 3, click on Import from file and select the location.
   

After exporting the favorites, refer the steps in the section Repair or reset Microsoft Edge
from the article
What to do if Microsoft Edge isn't working.



Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
