Where's my Google?

Did a search for something or other earlier this morning only to find that my laptop has switched from it's usual Google and over to Yahoo.

What's going on, why did it happen..... and how do I change it back?

Grrrr.

Re: Where's my Google?

Which browser are you using and which operating system?

Thanks for your reply James @geek26

I'm using Chrome 55 on Windows 10.

Did a system reset a couple of days ago after downloading what turned out to be a suspicious looking program, so maybe that caused the hiccup?

Fix

That probably was why it has changed. 

Open chrome clicking on the three lines in the top right hand corner, look for the on startup section select open a specific page or set of pages then type google.co.uk clicking okay
