    You don't mention which browser you are using, so I'll assume IE.

    Go to Manage Add-Ons in the browser, and change the search option there, like this"

    Have you got any alternatives listed there? If not, you can't change the default unless there is an alternative to change it to.

    #1- Highlight Google
    #2- The buttons appear to remove etc.
    #3- Find more Search providers.
    To find more search engines click here. If only Google is in the listing at #1 you will need to click here to find a replacement.
    Then you can disable or remove Google.
