Cant' change search provider by default on this PC.

I can easily change the search engines on two other PC's, but not this one? He can block click to change?  (I click on one TI is unconscious) Any suggestions please would be appreciated. Thank you! Mike E. like this!

That suggested Mr. Jumbles might work. In addition, you can reinstall Internet Explorer and see what the result is.

Given that the problem appeared, are there changes/programs that have been installed on the computer?

What is the text of the error messages that appear?

Hope this helps

Post back if necessary

  • How to change email provider by default when mailto is not a content type in applications

    I recently installed outlook on my machine. Now instead of Gmail as my default email, it uses outlook and I want to go back to Gmail, but I don't have a Mailto as a content type in applications. Help, please.

    When I create a new Firefox profile blank, mailto is there by default, so maybe at some point that he has been removed from your download manager/application preferences file. This file can be edited in theory, but because the format is not well documented, it might be simpler to rename this one and have Firefox to generate a new.

    Here's how:

    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    Switch back to Firefox and output

    Pause while Firefox finishing his cleaning, then rename the mimeTypes.rdf to something like mimeTypes.old.

    Restart Firefox and check Options > Applications again. A little luck?

    In addition, your Firefox itself as version 17, reported the Forum which is safer (Mozilla reveals security flaws after each new version). Is something holding you upgrade to Firefox 20? Please let us know if we can offer you solutions or workarounds.

    If help > about Firefox shows Firefox 20.0.1, you may need to disable the preference that is misrepresentation of your version number. See: sites say that Firefox is obsolete or incompatible, even if it's the latest version.

  • Installed the Duck Duck Go module but disabled google search still by default?

    I installed the duck duck go light and Duck Duck Go SSL module and have also disabled integrated Google module. However, when I type in an item to search for and click the return/enter on the keyboard I always get sent to the Google search page, and not a Duck Duck Go Search, which is what I was looking for. Is there anyway to make sure my lack of research on the search engine requested from the keyboard rather than having to click the menu drop-down option that appears?

    If you are looking in the address bar, you can change the search engine by default:

    1. Typing in Subject: config.
    2. By clicking on the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button in the warning that appears.
    3. If you type "browser.search.defaultenginename" into the search at the top of the page box.
    4. By double-clicking on the stated preference and change the value "DuckDuckGo."

  • Try to change from1 VLAN by default to 11issues with Force10s4810

    Hello

    I'm changing the vlan1 by default to 11, since I need to work with vlan 1 and tagged interface inside

    When I am running the below command I get

    SRV-CPTS-CORE1 (conf) #default vlan id-11

    % Error: VLAN existing cannot be set on default VLAN Vl 11.

    No idea how to do this?

    Please advice

    Thank you

    Thanks for the additional info. After doing some research it turns out that you can not make an existing VLAN in the VLAN by default. We have to run these commands, and it should work.

    #no int vlan 11

    #default vlan id-11
