    How do I get duckduckgo.com into search providers in Add Ons?


    I want to add Duckduckgo.com search provider to the list of Search Providers in Manage Add Ons. I am using IE10 and I have looked in help but what I am being told to do does not tie up with what I am seeing on the screen. I think the answer is to get Duckduckgo into the list of Add-ons in the Internet Explorer Gallery but even then I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions please?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Did you try this?
    DuckDuckGo | Internet Explorer

    My screen snip is from IE10, but I didn't try to install it...

    Many thanks, that worked perfectly and Duckduckgo now appears in Search Providers in Manage Add-ons.
