I'm assuming in some update over the past year, my settings were changed, then how I'd change my settings back was changed, and any obvious way to return my settings to normal was removed. Does anyone know how to get google back as my search engine? Going into preferences, then search, and then clicking the drop-down list for search engines, no longer works. The list now only gives an available option of "a browser", with no clear way of adding anything to the list. And any search on the topic only tells me how to change the default IF that drop-down list gives other options. I'm assuming I can add to the list, but it doesn't give any clear way of doing that from there. Like for example, I seem to recall that in the past it showed "add default browser" at the bottom of the drop down list, or somewhere readily visible like that. Searching extensions and add-ons gives me a dozen options that aren't just google search. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for any help you all can give.
