    How to Force Microsoft Edge to Use Google Search or create custom new tabs.
    Microsoft Edge is actually a really good browser, but it isn't Chrome, and for some that can be a problem. To compound this the new tab function in Edge defaults to a Microsoft Edge / Bing mashup that again isn't always ideal.
    Also throw into the mix that the search options are different depending if you type the search in the address bar or the search box!
    Lets change all this right now!

    Thank you, wasn't easy to find this solution, went on several wild goose chases before getting to yours. Very well presented, easy to follow and no rambling on about stuff that's not relevant. Of course it takes a fellow Brit to sort this out! So sick of Microsoft commandeering my choices. Well done mate!

    OH MY GOSH YOU ARE A LEGEND!!! For as long as I can remember I've been torn between the fact that Chrome won't let people push the sound icon on a tab to mute a tab (only offering right click mute site) and the fact that Edge was stained with Bing. But you have helped me FINALLY setting up what I feel like is the perfect web browser!

    Since rebuilding my PC to the new spec 3 months ago, I have been meaning to do something about Bing! Totally agree about the search results. I will be taking action today. Thanks MIKE for the timely video.
    What's the difference between a quality microwave and someone who knows a quality search engine when they see it?
    the microwave goes Bing.

    • @mikesunboxing
      @mikesunboxing  Před 3 lety +1

      paul i agree totally the bing search is generally awful as far as i can see from my results, even searching something like nvidia drivers it takes me to the highest paid malware site rather than the official nvidia pages.
      Very poorly optimised or just microsoft as usual just chasing dollars rather than making a usable piece of software

  • @katejones8705
    @katejones8705 Před 2 lety +2

    Wonderful! This was so irritating to fix! They literally trick you into using bing - I often clicked on new tab automatically and didn't realise it had switched to bing until I saw the dodgy and garbage results that popped up. Google seems to filter out the dodgy ones so the results are much better and less dangerous. If my default search engine is google, at no point do I want to be using bing! I shouldn't have to use an extension to prevent that! Thank you!

  • @skystalker7700
    @skystalker7700 Před 3 lety +2

    Thanks for the how-too, Mike! I suppose I am one of the outliers - I use the new Edge, and I don't mind the default Microsoft page - it is Microsoft News for me. The page has the Bing search bar, and I do use it for a quick search, and Google when I need it.

    • @mikesunboxing
      @mikesunboxing  Před 3 lety

      edge is okay, i just find the bing biased search to be rather hit and miss for my personal use, but if it works for you then that is all you can ask for

    • @mikesunboxing
