PLEASE HELP! One day last week, Firefox for my PC disappeared and it seems that Duckduckgo has taken over. I have used Firefox on my PC for a few years and occasionally use duckduckgo as my browser. Now I cannot find Firefox. It is up-to-date, as of last week.

Please Help RhonCa

The browser selected is an option in Windows

How did you get DuckduckGo as a browser, did you download it as it is not available by default.

So how do you open the browser, via a desktop icon, and are you saying you had a FX icon that has been deleted?

On Win 10 have you checked the programs to see if Fx is still installed and if so drag it to the desktop/

That's a Beachboys thing > Help me Rhonda :)

The fastest is to just go to firefox.com and get the installer, run it on your system, and it will put things back as they were originally.
