Very helpful! I hate Yahoo so much and I haven't been able to change it until now. I especially liked how you described the problem perfectly in the simplest terms and didn't beat around the bush at all!

Man ur a life savior, I was fed up with McAfee so much so that I swore never to buy coz of the Yahoo search engine. I tried everything from deleting and changing the browser. Thank you so much really helpful.

@mokshitrambhia3714 Год назад

McAfee has removed thats second option of "Tell me if a search result is safe in any search engine". Only first and last options are available to choose from now !

@youtubeTamil Год назад

Oh is it, haven't checked recently good to know. And I believe that is a very bad move from McAfee

Fix my problem and go a step further I was so confused after reading a few other websites. This site explains very clearly and I get rid of the problem that McAfee Web Advisor keeps switching my browser from Chrome to Yahoo. This site takes a step further. It figures out what Web Advisor does. And most important, it shows you how to keep it working on Chrome without Yahoo. Thanks.

Gracias hermano, feliz de ayudar.

@VeganDoris 8 месяцев назад

This works, but the fix is only temporary. Every time I restart my computer, the default search engine changes back to Yahoo. McAfee's suggested fix is to wait until a notification pops up telling you that secure search is turned off, and then you can tell it not to change your search engine the next time you restart. Why should I have to wait for a pop up from McAfee to change that setting? This is awful.

From McAfee side this indeed is a very bad decision.

@helutrope Год назад

Thank you for the video! This just happened to me, but I first removed the WebAdvisor extension at first, changed default engine while also removing yahoo and then reinstalled WebAdvisor again - which worked btw. Checked the options and it was already marked as any search engine. Problem solved! Did yahoo ever present themselves again as the deaful engine for you by following this method you have shown? Just curious

@youtubeTamil Год назад

Yes it does get turned to default if we click agree in the pop up that appears once in every few days

@sunsetboulevard1950 Год назад

This is helpful. Thank you! For some reason every week or so it resets back to Yahoo. Why is that? Is it something that I am doing that triggers it to go back to Yahoo? I appreciate any help!

@youtubeTamil Год назад

Yes after every update I guess you get a pop-up that asks you to enable secure search from time to time and when you click okay, it set yahoo as your search engine. That is a really bad move by McAfee, there is a registry entry that can be edited to avoid it on windows.

@RoaldWillemsen Год назад

thks, but most of the time when you log in to your computer anotherday, Mcafee is back again, so I removed it as you say, it still returns?

@youtubeTamil Год назад

It does once if a while a pop-up appears and that renables Yahoo as the safe search. It is very shaddy of McAfee to do this.

@HisExcellencyAKK Год назад

It will default back to yahoo search after you restart you machine which is annoying. I had to unninstall Mcafee and started using Norton360 instead.
