I have made duckduckgo my defaut search engine but it doesn’t work it goes to yahoo. I followed the instructions for the other person having this problem and it did not work. I have turned off everything except
Automatically redirect .onion sites which it will not allow me to turn off. Can someone help me with this. Thanks
Description of the issue: How can this issue be reproduced?
The only thing I can think of, not being much of a windows user, is to scan for malware… because if you set up brave settings to use ddg and you’ve turned off all extensions, your search should go through ddg unless you picked up some malware or something…
You can try to clear/delete cache/history, close brave, and reboot computer… maybe it’s just stuck data… but I don’t really expect that to work… As far as malware scanner to use, I don’t use windows so I couldn’t really say…
@gypsearose,
Does Yahoo appear in other browsers if you were to open them and run a search? Can you try creating a new browser profile and seeing if Yahoo! is also the default search when using the new profile?
