I had set Google to be my default search engine. But that seems to have been replaced by yahoo! [I have tried to put a screen shot here but Firefox won't let me] I searched for Google in the search box which put the following in the url.

https://uk.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=google&hspart=iba&hsimp=yhs-syn_weatherprince&param2=9dUI1n2R0BLDxNuWfiP4aSFOTltNdSPoIx38%252BUf%252FiXrvPdoGmStdlfwLFZYDv ...

In Settings>Search, there is no Yahoo. Presumably it has hacked my computer. How can I get rid of it? I am running Windows Defender (3 1/2 hours to go) and I have Reset Firefox. Win11, 64 bit, latest Firefox

I have Reset Firefox.

You refreshed your existing profile and it still happens without signing in to you sync account?

If you signed in to your sync account, try disabling your extensions.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window
