If you do not find it appropriate and would like to change or add another search provider to Internet Explorer, you could easily do so. Most recent versions of Internet Explorer allow you to add search providers. You can choose which provider you would like to use when you search for information on the Internet. You can change the search provider for a specific search and you can specify which search provider you prefer to be used by default. When you first install Internet Explorer, you might have only one provider installed. If you would want to add providers, follow the steps below to add new search providers.
Add Search Providers to Internet Explorer
In Internet Explorer, you can add multiple search providers right from the Address bar. Here’s how to go about it. Type a search term in the Address bar. From the drop-down list that appears, click Add, and then choose the search providers you want to add.
When done, click on the ‘Add to internet Explorer’ button as shown in the screenshot below.
Next, confirm the action when requested.
That’s it! You have added the desired search provider to your Internet Explorer. You will notice, for each search provider you add, a button is displayed in the drop-down list from the Address bar. This makes switching between providers during a browsing session easy and fast. All you have to do is click a button to switch your search to that provider.
To change your default provider, remove a provider, switch the order of the buttons in the search box, or see what other management options are available, click the Tools menu, click Manage Add-ons, and then, under Add-on Types, click Search Providers.
Hope this helps!
