- This article applies to Firefox and Mozilla Suite.
This article describes how to remove search plugins from the Search Bar.
Manual removal
With Mozilla Suite or Firefox closed, open the searchplugins folder in the following location.
- Firefox 1.5, default search plugins: Installation directory.
- Firefox 1.5, custom search plugins: Profile folder
Warning. Removing any of the default search plugins in Firefox 1.5 may result in failure of the current Firefox 1.5.0.1 partial update ((Bug 325561) as reported here. It is recommended that you only remove custom search plugins in Firefox 1.5 until the issue is resolved.
- Firefox versions previous to 1.5: Installation directory
- Mozilla Suite: Installation directory
Delete both .src and .gif or .png search plugin files for the search engine you want to remove. For example, to remove the Webster search engine, you would delete the files "webster.src" and "webster.gif". Restart the application and it will be gone.
If you removed a search plugin because it was broken, please go to the Mycroft Homepage and "judge" this plugin.
