Why does my browser keep changing search engine to Yahoo?
My preferred search engine is Duck Duck Go. Unfortunately, it keeps resetting itself to Yahoo. I have to go in and manually change it back and I’ve even deleted Yahoo, but it keeps showing up. Can someone tell me how and why this is happening?

I only have 3 extensions and I need all three. Could it be something else? Or, could my McAfee be changing it?

Hello Judy,
Without knowing the extensions, I can’t really help. Yes it is entirely possible McAfee could be doing this.

Thank you so much. It was a problem that was with McAfee. I fixed it with your help.
