I can't change my home page of Firefox search engine.

I downloaded Bandoo emoticons and it loaded "searchqu' search engine and is now used on the home page of Firefox. I prefer Google who it was. I tried to change it, turn it off, uninstall, and I tried to uninstall Bandoo. But I can't get rid of it. It shows no upward as Searchqu in my computer programs and I cannot find it there. He was in my Firefox Add - ons, which is where I've uninstalled it from. How can I get rid of him?

                     Thanks, lige perry

  • I can't change the home page

    Some time before, my homepage has been set at 3 sites.
    One of them needs to be changed now, but it's impossible.
    No matter what I do, the homepage is the same
    Web sites. I can't reset it by default, I can't edit prefs.js and
    have no effect, there is no user.js I see anywhere.

    I even deleted the application and remove any profile
    information (that I know), no change. Home 3
    pages are back.

    There was a mozilla.cfg in program files (x 86) who had
    integrated in home pages. It has not been indexed by
    the windows file an indexer for a reason, so when he didn't
    show it when I looked for it, I didn't know that it really is.

  • How can I change the address to google bar search engine?

    Basically, I want to make google the search engine by default, I tried to change the thing: the url of the keyword in the config that is not working, the search engine bar is set to google, but the address bar back to Yahoo which I don't want.

    The key word. Pref URL is no longer used in current versions of Firefox.
    Firefox uses the same search engine (by default) for the address bar and the subject: such home page as defined for the search bar.

    It is more likely a problem caused by an extension.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • How can I get rid of the Yahoo homepage? Changing the home page does not work.

    A week or two before Yahoo started coming as my home page. No matter how many times I change back to Bing, whenever I have rise of Firefox, there is Yahoo as homepage. Does not he back on Bing and clicking ok. I'm a little frustrated by that. How can I get rid of Yahoo to come as my home page when I have asked yet for her?

    Thank you for your time and your consideration.

    Sincerely,
    cbrsarah

    Change the home page when you check only in "Options > general > Startup" or is it a problem with the page that opens when you launch Firefox?
    For the latter, you can check the field target in the Firefox desktop shortcut.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

    Why Firefox can not add a simple question opt-out or the protection password to change the home page?

    After you add that, add: "permanently block access by X.com. O/N.

    Web sites do not have permission to change your home page. If you find that it is turned, consider the possibility that you have somehow an extension of thugs.

    Leaving you to restore your homepage?

    Some related questions:

    (1) if there is no Remove button to an extension, see the control panel. In Windows Vista and 7, the relevant dialog box is "uninstall a program". don't know how it's called point 8.1 of Windows. By clicking on the column heading "installed on" sort by date and unmask possible grouped items that you did not know were being installed. Remove all the nonsense that you can. (If you find something named research protect or BrowserSafeguard, remove it.)

    (2) software from third parties can create a file named user.js that Firefox reads at startup and which will replace the saved settings from your previous session. This article describes how to track down and remove this file if you have one: How to fix preferences that will not save.

    (3) some utilities such as Advanced SystemCare have a feature to restore your settings changes, allowing lock unwanted parameters. Them is called surf Protection. If you have this or a similar Protection setting (etc.) of the home page that prevents you from making the changes you want, turn off temporarily (or permanently).

    (4) in order to mop up unwanted software, try the scanners of other Firefox users have found useful in this article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware.

    I hope that it will control.

  • A person continues to change my home page every time I'm on the Internet, how can I do so they cannot do more?

    I get on the Internet with Firefox, and someone changes my home page of this web site of conduit. I think it's a search engine. In any case, I change back to Yahoo as I want, and they change it right back. I spent the last two nights my antivirus running and try to change my passwords and all that fun jazz and it still happens. Can you do stop, please? I'm tired of resetting my Firefox so that I get rid of this problem too. It's a recurring problem. This is officially the third time, I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox to get rid of this problem, and I'm tired of it.

    The Conduit Plugin and associated preferences changes become installed by themselves, the user is involved due to the installation of the extensions of 'shit' or other garbage programs. You must be more careful when they decide which modules or programs you install.

    For correct Firefox the first thing to do is remove this extension has entrusted the toolbar through the Add-ons Manager Extensions tab.
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/remove-toolbar-has-taken-over-your-Firefox-search

    Then install the extension search Reset - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/

    Then fix everything: newtab - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites#w_how-do-i-turn-the-new-tab-page-off - preference and instead of double-click that preference, right-click this pref and select ' Reset. "
