I have tried every method found via search without success. One of those tutorials did say that if it can't be done there is a bug. Can someone tell me how they changed their Linux mint 20.0 Startpage from Linux default to google or duckduckgo?
In upper right hand corner there should be 3 horizontal bars click on them.
Go to settings click on it.
Look on the left for home and click it.
You see where it says home page and new windows you should see the url for the default Linux Mint browser page delete that
have duckduckgo open
and then click use current page.
That's the way I do it and it always has worked.
IMPORTANT
WHICH browser are you using
Windows 10 ?
I have no problems making changes to Firefox under Windows 10 but using Linux does not work, regardless of what I try. Maybe, as a last resort, I should just try something other than Firefox?Are you trying to do this with Firefox under Windows 10, or Firefox under Linux Mint, or both?
Cheers and welcome to linux.org

No reason to drag anything.Gods must like you better than me because it just won't work. Dragging to the home button no good either.
If you can make the changes to Firefox that you want using Windows 10 then you should be able to make the changes to Firefox using Linux.I have no problems making changes to Firefox under Windows 10 but using Linux does not work, regardless of what I try.

Firefox in Windows 10 is the same as Firefox in Linux there is no difference and I use both Windows 10 and Linux.
