Hello,
Your start page search is based on the search provider set on your search bar (the bar to the right of your address bar). Please click the (twitter) icon or the down triangle on the search bar and select a different search provider.
For more information, please see Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox
You can check if you have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.
If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
Try to delete the search.json file and possible search-metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to reset the search engines to the default.
Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
