Change Default Search Engine
All browsers have a default search engine that is activated when you type something into its address bar. Edge has Bing, Chrome has Google, etc. To change the default in Chrome, select the menu (three dots in the upper right) and select Settings. On the left, choose default browser.

Using the pulldown, choose the new default.

Wise vs CCleaner


Wise Disk Cleaner Is Like CCleaner, But Better. For many CCleaner has been the go-to tool for freeing up drive space for years.

Bookmark Sidebar


In Firefox there is a bookmark sidebar that can be opened showing all bookmarks. This option is available in Chrome with an extension called bookmark sidebar. I set mine to show on the left when I move my mouse to the left side and left-click. Moving back to the right closes the bar.
