No matter what I try, only Yahoo and Bing search engines appear in the search box top right on Firefox. The Search engine manager only shows these two engines as well. I want to add Goggle and have not been able to. The default restore in the Search engine Manager is "Greyed out". What can I do to fix this ?

If those search engines are also missing in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) then a (re)install should restore them.

If they are present then try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the Firefox Profile Folder.

please try to download the full firefox setup file for version 13 from getfirefox.com & install it on top of your current installation (all your personal data will remain).
