How to clear Safari search preferences?

Safari uses only DuckDuckGo even if I checked to Google search. The results include spam and * spam. This feels like malware...

Click here and follow the instructions, or if you do not delete rather manually the adware, launches MalwareBytes for Mac. If you run 10.6.8 or earlier, you must use the instructions in the manual.

MalwareBytes simplifies the process of removal of adware, but does not stop it or other malware from entering the computer. It should not be invoked to prevent future incidents; Instead, avoid downloading software from sources other than the Mac App Store or Developer Web sites.

    I try the following code to clear the contents of the search results, BUT it does not work. The data in the table is always run after the code below here.
    DCIteratorBinding binding = ADFUtils.findIterator("UserVO1Iterator");
    if (binding!=null) {
        binding.clear();
    }
    Can someone help me? How to clear the contents in an af:table supporting the Java bean code?

  • How to clear search words to search for office files?

    I moved a bunch of files into a new folder on my desktop and then used the search box of the file to search for key words.  Now the search words appear whenever I'm looking for anything in any folder.  How can I clear the search history?  Using Norton to erase files Temp of Windows does not seem to do.  TIA.

    You're comfortable with changes in the Windows registry, this place where we are warned that we might accidentally mess up the computer with one false move?  If so, the fix is not difficult.  In any case, here are my notes on the subject:

    When you enter search terms in a search box of Windows 7, they are stored in the Windows registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\WordWheelQuery and appear as suggestions for further research.  To remove the terms stored, remove the whole part of the registry.  (Search terms are stored in hexadecimal code and therefore are not recognizable as regular text here.)  To prevent the storage of search terms, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer, right-click on Explorer, right-click again and click on DWORD (32-bit) value, type DisableSearchBoxSuggestions and press ENTER.  DoubleClick DisableSearchBoxSuggestion, type 1 for the value, and then click OK.
