Hi, I need a help. I can’t change the default search engine option in Google Chrome. Chrome constantly uses Yahoo as a search engine and does not allow me to restore Google as default search engine.

Question Tags: default search engine option, yahoo

If chrome constantly uses yahoo without your consent and the possibility of changing the default search engine is blocked, then it looks like your computer is infected with browser hijacker.

To remove yahoo and unblock the possibility of changing the default search engine, first try resetting the chrome settings. Use the guide: How to reset Google Chrome settings.
