How on earth do I add Quant to the Firefox search engine? This info is no where under the help section, only lots of reading about warnings! In Firefox preferences I have made Quant my default browser so why is this so difficult? I vaguely saw a little warning message saying that Mozilla was not allowing this but this warning was hidden and I can't find it again. Firefox guided my to 'pin' Quant to the Firefox toolbar but every time I open a page to search I have to remember to hit the Quant pin. This is absolute nonsense. Please email me back and tell me how I can add Quant to my Firefox so that every time I open Firefox the Quant homepage will just be there. Thank you. Cynthia

Firefox itself is a web browser as the company Mozilla does not have a search engine service of their own. DuckDuckGo, Bing, Google, Yahoo, Qwant for example are search engines.

Lots of Qwant search engines you can add to the Firefox web browser at https://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.html?name=Qwant
