Set Google as default search engine

google

Search by default via all kinds of internet browsers with the popular Google search engine.


Internet programs use search engines. Google is just not always the default search engine. For example, Edge uses the search engine Bing. Prefer to search with Google? Set that from now on this search engine will be searched by default. For example, if you type a search term in the address bar, you will automatically search with Google. Useful!
