Are you tired of using search engines that don’t give you the results you want? Do you prefer Google over Yahoo but your browser keeps defaulting to the latter? Well, good news! You can easily change your default search engine on Safari and Google Chrome on your Mac with macOS Monterey.

Let’s start with Safari. First, open up your Safari browser and press the Command and Comma keys. This will bring up a pop-up window where you can find the option called “Search Engine.” Click on it and choose your preferred search engine from the list. Whether it’s Yahoo or Google, once you’ve set it as your default search engine, any search you make will go through that engine.

Now, let’s move on to Google Chrome. Open up the browser and click on the three dots on the upper right-hand corner. From the drop-down menu, click on “Settings” and then “Search Engine.” You’ll see five options to choose from, including Google, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and Ecosia. Pick your preferred search engine and save your changes. From now on, any search you make on Google Chrome will go through your selected search engine.

And that’s it! Changing your default search engine is a simple process that can save you a lot of frustration. Hopefully, these steps have been helpful to you.
