Yahoo Hijacking Google Search

everytime I do a google search the system redirects to Yahoo. I need it to go back to google, this is ridiculous. I have tried the other fixes...but the responses are very old and I believe that my MacBook Pro is a more recent version.

Download and run Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes was developed by one of our own colleagues here in ASC and is about the most proven anti-malware software for Mac. It’s the only one recommended by Apple tech support folks. All you need is the free version.

After that restart and go to Safari menu > Preferences > Search and change your Search Engine back to the one you prefer.
