vedicaudio Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 After installing MX6, none of my search engine aliases are working, and all my saved search engines were deleted. It seems that the "alias" shortcut has been replaced with "keyword", but why did this not transfer over from MX5 to MX6? This is the kind of stuff that makes users not want to upgrade their browser to a newer version! MX5: MX6: Tip Give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScreenRecorderProject1.mp4 Well apparently I'm doing something wrong because I can change to any search engine in the list, close Maxthon, re-open Maxthon and it stays to what I have changed it to.

vedicaudio Posted June 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 So this thread kind of got hijacked into a discussion on default search engines. Has the bug causing all search engine aliases to be deleted been fixed yet? Tip Give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidude Posted July 6, 2022 Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 This has just happened to me as well now. I have been using duckduckgo for a long time as my default then today Mx threw a fit and lost many of my settings. I went through and reset the changed ones but now Search engine is Google Max and this cannot be changed to any of the other displayed engines. Is there a solution to this yet?

EDIT: Found a solution switch off the Duckduckgo privacy essentials extension !!! This was one of the settings that got changed during the misbehaviour earlier Tip Give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
