Sudden search thingy on startup

goldenkoala

I have no idea what this thing is or why it appeared. It just showed up one day. It's really annoying. I want to get rid of it, but I don't know how. Can someone help me?

There could be a few reasons why a search thingy appears on startup all of a sudden. It could be that a program or browser extension is installed that is set to display a search thingy on startup. Or, it could be that your browser's settings have been changed to display a search thingy on startup.

If you're not sure why a search thingy is appearing on startup, you can try troubleshooting by disabling any recently installed programs or browser extensions. If that doesn't work, you can try resetting your browser's settings to their default values.

A search thingy, or a search bar, can appear on startup for a few different reasons. It could be that you recently installed a new browser or toolbar that includes a search feature. Alternatively, your home page might have been changed to a new one that includes a search bar. If you're not happy with this change, you can usually adjust your settings to remove the search bar or change your home page back to a previous one.
