How do I get rid of this? Everytime I try to search for something in Firefox, I get an error message and this website comes up: retrorevivesearch.com. I gather this is a malicious search engine - how do I get rid of it?

For some reason the first item when I open my browser is google. I do not use google-I can search my browser's history and see I do not use google. How do I get it removed? There is no reason for it to pop-up in my browser at all but there is absolutely no reason for it to be the top item whenever I open my browser. Why is it even there? I always use DuckDuckGo to search.

Please help me remove google from my browser. I have attached a screenshot with my browser showing google as the first item when I open it. This is getting so frustrating when I try to avoid google like the plague...the plague it is.

Thank you very much.

How can I delete search history? I have a few misspelled searches and similar old stuff that pops up in the address bar when I type in a new search.

I have tried several things:

• Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear data → Selecting and marking everything but with no effect whatsoever
• Settings → Privacy & Security → History → Firefox will never remember history + Clear history as mentioned above
• Settings → Search → Search suggestions → everything disabled
• Settings → Search → Address bar → everything but Bookmarks have been disabled
• Deleted my old Firefox account and created a new so I can still sync between 2 computers

Example: Previously I used www.adobe.com but now I use www.adobe.dk. But everytime I enter adobe in the address bar, Firefox keeps suggesting (autofill) adobe.com instead adobe.dk.

Any suggestions how to clear/delete the browser/search history so I can get a fresh start?

Hi!

My default search engine has always been Firefox for years. Since the last Firefox update, when I select + and get to a New Tab, the search engine changes to Google.

I am on Windows 10. I want the New Tab to stay with Firefox. Any tips?

Thank you for your help! TS

I added the duckduckgo extension and gave it the required permissions, but despite it saying that it set duckduckgo as the default search engine, it hadn't even showed up on the list at all. I tried removing and adding back the extension, but that didn't work either.

I've had the icons change position since 2 hours ago. I use my keyboard (the arrow keys) to use the search engines that I want to. I want to change it back, how do I do it?

Hello. For some reason, whenever I do a search the response is on a "Yahoo" tab. How do I return to Firefox, as I do not want to use Yahoo? Best regards Barry Mitchell

HOW CAN I GET RID OF GOOGLE? THEY'RE SO INVASIVE. I need Firefox to take over every single thing! The worst single thing I did, is downloading the app from Google! Mozilla and Firefox need an alternative for their downloads, of the app. Can't you help me, please?

I use Sequoia on a MacBook Air and I have used DDG in the past but recently it has become increasingly restrictive in its searches....to the point where it won't even allow me access to my own accounts. I have tried deleting the application, uninstalling Firefox and then re-installing it but it just won't go away.
