Yahoo can't be removed as search engine. Have selected Google (which disappeared) every which way. Yahoo remains.

Regrets I scrolled down to #7 clicked and was submerged in what seemed like an alternate malware program.


I am not certain I understand 'manual uninstall".


I had already selected Google in the preferences and in the address line in the search window.

I went to extensions and have only one = Search Manager.. Could that be the problem?


thanks for your efforts.

See if the below helps. I would scroll down to the below or you might fall asleep.
