How to remove Yahoo search from your Chrome browser? In this tutorial, I show you how to fix Google Chrome default search engine changing to Yahoo search. We go through the steps of removing Yahoo from your computer from the result of any virus, malware or malicious Chrome extension. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions while removing Yahoo from your Chrome browser.

If your Chrome default search engine keeps changing back to Yahoo search, it could be a sign of a security issue on your computer, Chromebook, or mac. The steps in this tutorial will first help you identify any Chrome extensions or Chrome apps that might be malicious or unwanted and remove them from your Google Chrome browser.

This fixed a similar issue I've had for some time; whenever I opened a tab it would open a blank search tab with no search engine logo but when I looked something up it would go to yahoo. Thank you so much! This was easy to understand and super helpful!! 😭❤

You're a lifesaver. Yahoo was just so subpar from Google I was wanting to pull my hair out.

[katiebowen]

This Yahoo search engine is driving me nuts, and there's no option to remove it under Manage Search Engines. You can remove all the other ones, but Yahoo is locked. Makes my blood boil. :(

Yahoo is that kid in your school days whom you don't want to invite for any things but still somehow comes and now hesitated to tell him to leave .
