When I rightclick on a highlighted text, one of the options is to search for that term on apast visited site - this would be handy. But, it seems impossible to set google search as the default for this search. Every other option has a set as default option, except google.

Is this a glitch in Chrome or am I doing something wrong (most likely).

The only way to google for that term is to copy it and open a new chrome page and paste it. This takes at least 5 seconds of my valuable time. lol

Mine works on a Google search, wildwood.

On the right hand side of the Chrome webpage there is three blue horizontal lines. If I hover my mouse over them it says [Customize and control Google Chrome]. Click on it and it brings up a sub-menu. Scroll down to SETTINGS and click on it. Scroll down that page and you should come across a piece of text that should say

Set which search engine is used when searching from the omnibox.

Underneath is the pull-down menu that has Google, Wikipedia and other search engine types.

Does this help?

Thanks Judge, but that is precisely my problem. The Google one doesn't have a 'set as default' option. all the other ones do.

Google does not need to be in the search engine list. The Chrome address bar is the Google search bar.

With the help of setting option of the Google chrome, you can set Google as your default search for that you have to follow these steps :

Select icon below the close button
Select "Options" from it
From the basis tab, select open this page and url of the Google like this "http://www.google.com/"
Select "Google" as default search
