I solved this quite annoying issue with a quick solution that I would like to share as an easy-to-use practical tutorial as well.

Two extensions from Chrome and Safari should be uninstalled. The following extensions and any extensions with similar names. (these two extensions was on in my laptop, in yours might be a bit different names).

From Safari:

go to preferences,

then select Extensions Tab:

>> now simply hit Uninstall button.

hint: you should do it two times sometimes to work!

---- for Chrome, follow the below instructions

and in chrome:

Open Preferences:

from the new window, click the three-line icon to open a left-hand list:

you could see the following list:

from that select extensions:

now simply hit 'Remove' under 'TotalResultsSearch'.

I hope it helps.
