I know there are threads about this but could not find them. I have also searched online and the solutions did not work.

I am sooo tried of google.th being the default. I know i can use google.com/ncr but how can I make it my default. ? I use firefox .

I have a gmail account and even log in first then go to google.

Does not work.

Had the same problem in control panel internet set the default to www.google.co.uk then it will not revert, or never has done with me

I use yahoo but for firefox try this

in the address bar type about:config and enter, read the "message" and enter again (if is your first time in that area)

search -> keyword

double click on keyword.url

change the default for some of these

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=
or
http://www.google.co.th/search?hl=en&q=

now you can search directly in the address bar and the result will be in english

you can change the language changing this hl=[languague]

for example for spanish/ESpaniol es

http://www.google.co.th/search?hl=es&q=

You can add more values for example for use verbatim, or porn on or search only results in the last year

This should give you chrome/google in English, you will have to open it from Ie, FF or Opera etc.

I switched to Chrome and set mine to google.ca (not many ads) It's easy in the set up.

Your welcome.

these are the other advanced configurations

&tbs=qdr:d search default only for today

&tbs=qdr:w search default only this week

&tbs=qdr:m search default only this month

&tbs=qdr:y search default only this year

&tbs=li:1 mode verbatim on (this desactivate the annoying idiot proff search on google that all the time it's trying to correct your words)

sad that it's not possible combine verbatim with time

&safe=off this desactivated the default "safe search: moderate", very useful for find good images and videos.

&safe=on if you have children around this set up the safe search: strict

Examples:
