Firefox and Google/Yahoo

[ainslie]

For a long time I have used Firefox, and on searching it has taken me to Google which I have been happy with.  Firefox searches now take me to Yahoo, and I would rather remain with Google. 
How do I change back?  I am not aware of having requested any changes.

Why can't you do what you are told??       You don't have to ask for it to be changed...   


Tools>> Options  >> Search

and change it to Google in Dropdown box

Thanks for that.  I could not find 'Tools' but did trudge my way to the Options, so all should now be well.

Tools is at top of screen on Menu Bar....

Even easier, if you hover the mouse near the magnifying glass in the Search box, it shows you a list of search engines, just click on Google.

You've found it now but it also shows up if you click on the 3 horizontal bars, top right.
On Macs it comes up in Preferences.

Thanks again.  I can always rely on getting good advice here!

Doesn't change Default Search Engine so one has to do it each time..... If Google Icon is down in bottom box, just Right click on it and Set as Default (if one wants to!)
