When I use the address bar in Edge to search, it brings up a yahoo page???
I have set to Google in the settings (edge://settings/search) but same thing happens – yahoo results.
what obvious thing am I overlooking?

<p>First of all, in Edge to go ||Menu (…) > Settings > Privacy, search and services > Address bar and search > Manage search engines ||. The one in bold text is your default. Check that the URL associated with it does indeed do a Google search; otherwise use the … option to edit it. (To delete an entry, you must first make another provide your default).</p><p><br></p><p>If that looks fine, then next go to ||Menu (…) > Apps > Manage apps|| and see if there is anything unusual there.</p><p><br></p><p>Then also try ||Menu (…) > Extensions|| and review items on that screen too.</p><p><br></p><p>Failing that, bring up an "InPrivate" window and see if your search gets hijacked in that window — if so, it's likely to be malware, so try a Malwarebytes scan, and the Microsoft AutoRuns tool to look for unusual entries. If search works fine during InPrivate, you've likely got some GPO configured.</p>
