Hi, I am running a desktop CPU under Windows 11 since last month. Firefox is my standard browser - but it switches automatically within a second to BING. I cannot find any BING info in my system to delete such a entry and move on with Firefox.

Hi there GM, so if I understand correctly, when you search for something it takes you to BING is that the issue you're describing? If that's the case, BING is a search engine, just like Google search or Duckduckandgo so you're still using Firefox but searching inside Firefox with BING. If you want to change your search engine check here: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/add-or-remove-search-engine-firefox
