I have added Startpage as another search engine and I can set it as the default engine allowing me to search with Startpage from the URL field. However, when I close firefox and start it again it's back to Google? Firefox 144.3 (63239)

The team will fix this bug with the next update (version 145).

A couple notes:

  • Some users say that reinstalling Firefox fixed this issue for them
  • Once the fix is released, you may still see an issue on your next immediate launch. However once you update your search engines again, the problem should no longer occur
  • In the meantime, users can also try deleting all their custom engines and re-adding them. This may resolve the issue for you as well without an update.

Amazing, it worked by re-installing the app. Thanks TyDraniu!
