If your Chrome default search engine keeps changing back to Yahoo search, it could be a sign of a security issue on your computer, Chromebook, or mac. The steps in this tutorial will first help you identify any Chrome extensions or Chrome apps that might be malicious or unwanted and remove them from your Google Chrome browser. After that, we use Chrome to scan your PC for malware or viruses. Finally we run Windows Defender to do a full virus scan of your computer.
Follow the steps below to delete an extension or app from Chrome:
1. Open the Google Chrome browser.
2. Open the Chrome settings by first selecting the 3 dots in the top right of Chrome and then selecting More Tools in the menu.
3. Once in More Tools, select Extensions.
4. You will now see all the extensions and apps installed to your Google Chrome browser. Find the extension or app you want to uninstall and select Remove.
Follow the steps below to scan your computer for a virus with Google Chrome:
1. Open the Google Chrome browser.
2. Open the Chrome settings by first selecting the 3 dots in the top right of Chrome and then selecting Settings in the menu.
3. In the left sidebar of the Chrome settings, select Advanced and then Reset and clear up.
4. Once on Reset and clean up, select Clean up computer.
5. To start the Google Chrome virus scan, select Find.
6. Google Chrome will now check your system for any harm applications.

Is there a way to do this without going on settings because on my normal acc it lets me on chrome but my school acc has a yahoo browser and the admin blocked settings
Thank you your the best ☺️
This did not work because the page you went to does not exist on my computer. I have a one month old Asus laptop with Windows 10. It was a nightmare just getting chrome installed on my computer. It appears that microsoft deliberately configures windows ten to consider all browsers other than edge as malware. Then it was a second nightmare trying to change my home page from bing to Google. Then for a while it kept changing my home page back to bing. Now it prevents me from changing from Yahoo to Google. Google needs to come up with a page you can go to where yo press a button and it permanently makes chrome your browser and Google your home page and locks out all others from changing. I've spent a very frustrating several hours with no success trying to change my home page back to chrome. According to the attorney general's office in my state, it is a felony to highjack a computer. Anyone have a phone number and legal address for Yahoo so I can include that in my police report?
Yes I am fed up and I am taking legal action
thank you, this helped me fix the issue and now I know what to do in the future
Help my cromebook doesn't have clean up computor!
This was incredibly helpful! Can't stand yahoo products.
same
Same
why?
Ikr I hate them.
same I like yahoo mail but not yahoo search
Me: I want Google
Mom: We have Google at home
The Google at home: Yahoo
me: removes yahoo as a option searches yahoo: bro am i a joke to you
bad ending:you couldnt delelte the yahoo search no matter what you did ur stuck with yahoo
forgot to make a good ending so here it is
good ending:yahoo gets deleted from all of existence and now u dont ever have to worry about yahoo search
FOR REAL
not funny sorry bro
This fixed a similar issue I've had for some time; whenever I opened a tab it would open a blank search tab with no search engine logo but when I looked something up it would go to yahoo. Thank you so much! This was easy to understand and super helpful!! 😭❤
same thing happened to me but in the left portion of the url i saw the yahoo logo, i noticed when the tab was blank compared to my personalized one. Does anyone know how/why this occurs. Could It occur from something as little as an email because I havent downloaded anything new lately?
experiencing exactly this. google has always been my default search engine, but one day out of nowhere, google was gone and I was left with a page with no search engine tab and the yahoo logo on the left side of the tab above.
@@qwertyasdfg2219 Yeah and for some reason it keeps happening some time after I fix it so its jsut a temp. fix for now 😭
This video was incredibly helpful, clear, and concise. 11/10
I can finally look stuff up now
Mhhhhhh

Straight to the point, Thank you! It was an unwanted extension!
I cannot thank you enough. I was literly having a panic attack when this happened to my computer. you are a life saver!!
You're a lifesaver. Yahoo was just so subpar from Google I was wanting to pull my hair out.
BRUH THANK YOU! I WAS CRYING OVER ON HOW YAHOO IS THERE WHEN I SEARCH SHIT UP

IKR
Yahoo's time was 10 years ago
IT FUCKING PISSES ME OFF
Me rn!
THANK YOU SO MUCH OMIGOSH I WAS LITERALLY CRYING OVER HOW FRUSTRATING THIS WAS
A year later still helping me out!! Appreciate this man 🥀✊🏼
Yahoo is that kid in your school days whom you don't want to invite for any things but still somehow comes and now hesitated to tell him to leave .
This Yahoo search engine is driving me nuts, and there's no option to remove it under Manage Search Engines. You can remove all the other ones, but Yahoo is locked. Makes my blood boil. :(
same thing for me ! :( Were you able to fix it or still no?
i’m so fucking mad i can’t figure out what it is >:(
@@simonsex you need to add an other search engine afterways you can set that search engine as default and then you can delete yahoo,
STP Muzzly TY BRUH
BECAUSE OF THIS I STARTED USING MICROSOFT EDGE
Thank you bro, I was sceptical but you actually fixed it your getting a sub for that 👍.
Thank you so much! Viewed at least 5 other videos and visited the HP community chat and still couldn’t stop my Chrome browser from opening up with yahoo. You were spot on with your easy to follow information on stopping yahoo from opening! Thank you so much for helping me correct this problem! Your video is the only one that actually fixed my problem! Thanks again! ❤️🤗
This dude deserves so much more love on youtube bro, his videos actually help and hes one of the only people who actually reach out and talk to his fans. he's extremely helpful and appreciated!!!
Wow thank you for saying that!
Honestly, this man or woman who commented this, has BRAINS. Gauging Gadgets deserves so much popularity from what they are doing for the community, helping out with this stupid stuff, adding things to your computer that you may have not known existed, and many more.
@@GaugingGadgets I honestly never like videos, I just watch then leave. But you deserve a one of a kind star for being a good apple in the basket of bad apples that make clickbait
@@augiemight4816 Thank you so much for your kind words. You have made my day! Really glad my video helped you!
You're look familiar to me
READ THIS: If you have multiple profiles on your google chrome, make sure you check the extensions for every profile!
This is a great point! I need to do an updated video for this.

Thank you so much, it randomly switched to yahoo, and when i looked up why, it said i had a virus, but i followed your video, and now it is back to chrome
Thank you so much. This helped a lot and I really appreciate it 👍
I did all that, and Yahoo is still my default search engine. It won't even let me select google as an option. It also won't let me delete yahoo from the list!

If you go to settings and go to search engine and switch it to google it will work

My chrome settings does not have a "reset and clean up" it only has a reset. Should I just reset?
Mine doesn't have the "clean up" option either! Have you found a solution?
@@tyra5606 you have to go to advanced settings and you can see the clean up settings
S.Satguru Shanmugam for some reason mine doesn't have that option, even in advanced settings. the problem went away once i reset, though!
yes its what helped me get rid of the shithead browser
I'm on mac I think it only works on windows
OMG THIS WORKED THANK YOU SO MUCH!
