Google search on URL showing old version

I’m facing this issue while I try to search anything on the URL bar, I search for example “testing anything”, it redirects me to an old version of google and redirects again to another version of google result. How to fix that?


Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

That’s pretty strange – are you using a VPN or any other type of custom networking? Additionally, I only see the MetaMask extension there but do you have other extensions installed in the browser? Seems like perhaps one of them may be “hijacking” the search bar.

I can’t actually land on that page at all – when I enter the exact link you shared, I just land on the main Google Search page.

Hi Mattches, thank you! it was indeed an extension, I removed everything and let only metamask available, and it was something like “Search by area” something like this now its working fine
