Thanks, but that removes all New Tab features including Speed Dials etc. I just want the ability to change the search engine in the Search Bar. There is a little logic in allowing to do it on Start page and Address Bar, but not in New Tab Search Bar.

I missed whether y'all are talking in regard to Dev or Canary. This will not do as expected, presently, in Canary. However, in Dev, changed from Bing to google in settings... NTP using the address bar or the search bar, searched using google. The issue is not, currently in Dev only, Canary. And it has been reported to Mr Smiley which, all can/should do, still; more reporting the better.

Update:

This issue has been rectified as of Version 78.0.246.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
Please, update Canary Builds.

This is the value of reporting things.

Cheers,
Drew
