How to set a Search Engine in InternetE

Start by opening up the System Config Manager (SCM).

You can open it either by going to Start Menu > Programs > System > System Config Manager, or entering scm into the run box.

The start menu entry to access System Configuration Manager

Once in SCM, go to Software > InternetE.

The InternetE folder in the "Software" Section of the System Config Manager

If you don't see the InternetE folder, it means you probably haven't used InternetE and need to open the InternetE in order for the folder to appear.

Note: If you don't see the Software folder, reboot Windows96. If it still doesn't show up, you may need to reinstall Windows96

Once in the InternetE folder, double-click the "searchEngine" entry.

The dialog to edit the InternetE search engine in SCM

Delete the text in the JSON Value box, and put a pair of quotation marks. You can now put the URL to your favorite search engine. To determine where the search query will go, put %SEARCH_QUERY%

To help you, some entries for popular search engines will go here (including the quotes).

Google - "https://www.google.com/search?igu=1&q=%SEARCH_QUERY" Bing - "https://bing.com/search?q=%SEARCH_QUERY%" DuckDuckGo (HiFrame Required) - "https://duckduckgo.com/search?q=%SEARCH_QUERY%" Brave (HiFrame Required) - "https://search.brave.com/search?q=%SEARCH_QUERY%" Skynet from WINDOWS93 - "https://pierrepapierciseaux.net/.skynet/?q=%SEARCH_QUERY%" Ecosia (HiFrame Required) - "https://ecosia.org/search?q=%SEARCH_QUERY%&method=index" Wikipedia - "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Specal%3ASearch&go=Go&ns0=1&search=%SEARCH_QUERY%" YouTube (HiFrame Required) - "https://youtube.com/results?search_query=%SEARCH_QUERY%"
