Hello graydog, if you click Restore Defaults did that action recover the default search engines ?
Search bar - Easily choose your favorite search engine
thank you
You can check if you still have the XML files of the default search engines in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.
If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
