I downloaded Firefox and went to identify my default browser, my Dell has a drop-down menu to ID the default search engine however Firefox is not there. How can I add Firefox to that drop-down?

Hi DEE, Firefox doesn't operate its own search site. You can use Firefox with Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, or any other search site. More info on selecting that: Change your default search settings in Firefox.

For the default browser setting, this should be in the Windows default apps settings. Do the steps in the following article help: Make Firefox your default browser?

Any progress so far?
