How to change the Search Engine to Google on Edge Chromium

How to change the Search Engine to Google on Edge Chromium.

I recently switched to Edge Chromium and found it to be even better than Google Chrome. There are many features like Reader Mode, PDF Reader and more, and they also consume less RAM compared to Chrome. However, Edge Chromium also has several issues, and one of them is the default search engine. It is installed on Bing. In this article, I will show you how to change the default search engine in Edge Chromium. Let’s start.

As with Chrome, you can start typing your request in the URL bar, click Submit, and Edge Chromium will search the web. Another way to search directly from Edge Chromium is to enter your query in the Create tab. Both have Bing installed by default, and we’ll change that.

1. Change the search engine on the URL bar

To change the search engine in the address bar, click the three-dot menu and select Settings.

Google is now the default search engine. Anything you enter in the address bar will be done with Google. However, the home page and the new tab page will still use Bing. We will change this later.

2. Change the search engine on the new tab page

There are 2 ways to change the search engine on the home page. Both of these methods are third party extensions that redirect your requests to Google. I will list both extensions and their capabilities.
