How to change the WordPress default search to Woocommerce search?

I have a woocommerce store and I would like to make the wordpress default search to be the woocommerce product search. Is this possible? I have seen plugins that do this but they are all premium. I would like to do this without a plugin if possible.

If you want to change the default search module in WordPress to WooCommerce search, then you need to follow these steps:

Install and activate the WooCommerce Product Search plugin.
Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Products > Product Search and select WooCommerce Product Search for the Default Search Engine option.
That’s it! Now the search bar on your WordPress site will use the WooCommerce search.

In order to make the Woocommerce search the default search on your Wordpress site, you need to follow these steps:

Go to Woocommerce>Settings>Advanced
2.Scroll down to the bottom of the page and find the Search Settings section
In the Search Settings section, there is a checkbox that says "Use WooCommerce search for front-end search?", check that box.
Save changes.

Now, when someone uses the search function on your site, it will use the Woocommerce search by default.
