Duck Duck Go removal

I made DuckDuck go my default web search on Safari and I REALLY don't like it. But everything I've read on how to remove it, is not working... I have a Macbook Air. Any solutions?!?!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Re-set the default search engine within Safari preferences.


Should be simple enough to restore the original. I use Duck

DuckGo as main search engine. [Just I've never set a default.]

You may bookmark alternative search engines in menu bar.


Usually if you've correctly set this ~ you can be offered Safari,

and any of those in a long list.. You choose the first to launch.


Good luck! ☺︎
