<![CDATA[I need Google, not Yandex as search engine]]>Hello.
I want to use Google as primary search tool, but I cannot. There is no google in a list somehow. I added it manualy, but I cannot select it by default:

Google not even exists in my default list. I tryed that method with "Local State" file and replacing RU to US, but it doesn't work.

Please help, I don't want to use the search engine infected with the virus of Putin's propaganda, which does not find reliable and up-to-date information. What can I do to swap it to Google?

List of pre-defined search engines is region based and only those ones can be set as the default one.
