Default search engine does not get imported from profile, resets to google
after creating a new profile, and copying everything in the root directory to the new profile, including search.json.mozlz4, the default search engine setting does not get transferred over and is still set to google

Hi,
Are you able to change it to your preferred default search engine manually?

yes
Is this about one of the default search engines or about a search engine you installed yourself?

It's a search engine that is installed, by going to the page and clicking add search engine in the address bar
still have the problem.
1. add a custom search engine and set it to default. 2. delete all the other existing search engines such as google, bing, etc 3. create a new profile 4. overwrite/copy the contents of the old profile into the new one 5. in the new profile, google is installed again and set to default
I can't reproduce this.
