Cannot find Yahoo extension to delete
Yahoo has taken over search despite my preference. I must have inadvertently installed it. I do not see it in the list of extensions however. How do I delete it?

Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Remove “ Yahoo “ Anything. Also look for SafeSearch or SearchAssist Incognito.
Now do the same in the computer’s Programs Folder.
Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the Applications folder. Linux: Check your user manual.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
