Search results are given in yahoo browser

Google is my default browser in brave, but when I search some thing up, the seach results redirect me to yahoo results. This is very annoying. I have checked with the extensions. There is an issue else where, pls fix.


This is what i see on my brave settings

@Mr_kiWIop hey, based on what you’re sharing in the screenshot it seems that you had your browser hijacked by an extension or some form of malware. It went into your settings and changed all the details to have everything set to use Yahoo.

Assuming you have gotten rid of whatever might have done this, you would then either need to put all settings back to default, create and use another browser profile, or you’ll have to manually change everything back to what it should be.

Thank You for your response.
I did reset setting of my browser. But it seems to work, I have many important things saved on this profile by using another profile will be a headache. Could you suggest me any other ways

@Mr_kiWIop,
Remove all the Yahoo! entries and then test. Also, you’re showing the site search section but I’d be interested to see the Search engines section as well:

Thank You for your response.
I followed your instructions and it worked well. Now my search results are shown on my default browser.


Thank You
