Restore The Default Firefox Search Engine
I recently installed a software that changed the default search engine in Firefox. Firefox would query that search engine whenever I entered a keyword or phrase in the location bar. Thankfully though it is pretty easy to revert the change and restore the default Firefox search engine.
You need to open up about:config in the location bar and filter for the term keyword:url. A right-click on that entry and the selection of Reset changes the search engine to the default search engine.
It is of course possible to use another search engine by modifying the entry and entering the url of the new search engine that should be used.
