[Request]Allow to remove unwanted search engines from Opera

wulfhartus last edited by leocgHi,
I"m very frustrated with the search engine choice we have in Opera. It's impossible to delete the default search engines like Yahoo, Amazon, etc. I don't want these in my browser, but I can't delete them.
To make things worse, there is a keyword to trigger these engines. If I begin my research with "z", it will redirect me to Amazon. That's very frustrating. Please allow us to configurate this, and to delete it.What I am talking about : https://ibb.co/1qzV31D . I want to remove these engines (excepted google, duckduckgo).

Yes, it's very important!
There are search engines forbidden by the law in my country, so it's very displeasant that I can't get rid of them.

Hi Opera , any updates on this request?
As the other users, I want to remove all search engines but Google, when will be able to do so? -

@javiervonart We don't even know if we will be able to do it.

@leocg Thanks for the answer.
Let's hope at least you let us define the keywords for our non preferred search engines. -

Any updates on this? I'm looking for an extension to delete search engines or at least re-arrange the order of them since I REALLY don't need Yahoo/Bing and all the other crap on my right-click Search with list.
Thx. Stuff like this is why I'm considering other browsers.

The workaround appears to be to install an extension specifically for the search engine you're looking to use so that it'll appear on your right-click context menu. This will not let you delete search engines ofc.
E.g.: https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/extensions/details/search-in-youtube/
