does it work when you choose manage search engines... in the dropdown-menu and click on restore defaults in the dialog that opens?
if this doesn't work, a reinstall of firefox could maybe also address the issue - just go to getfirefox.com, download the latest version of the browser & install it on top of your current installation.

hello bkl64ski, this article explains how you can remove extensions you no longer use: Disable or remove Add-ons
also have a look at Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox...
The Disable or remove Add-ons article was the answer that took care of the problem and solved my issue. the Search bar - Easily choose your favorite search engine... article was no help because when I hit the down arrow only has Ask as a search provider NO other providers.

Philipp,
Thank you for the help. I had to restart firefox to get the options of all the search engines back. I will remember how I did this for me or someone else.
Thank again
