Description

Update search engine default for Australia:

Australia (AU)
Brave should be at the top of the drop down list at brave://settings/search

Related: #18331, #23814 #26181, #27709, and #38028

Steps to reproduce

Region set to AU

  1. Fresh profile
  2. Default search engine SHOULD be Brave
  3. Visit brave://settings/searchEngines
  4. Brave SHOULD be first in the Default search engines list

Region set to anything else (excluding CA / DE / FR / GB / US / AT / ES / MX / BR / AR / IN, IT)

  1. Fresh profile
  2. Default will NOT be Brave Search
  3. Visit brave://settings/searchEngines
  4. Brave SHOULD be first in the Default search engines list - unless you're in a region where Yandex is default (AM, AZ, BY, KG, KZ, MD, RU, TJ, TM, UZ). In that case it will be second.

I was using https://priv.au searx instance.

After upgrade when I put anything in the URL/Search bar and pressed enter - enter did not work anymore.

I went to brave://settings/search and the default search engine was blank.

Clicking 'Change' does nothing.

I had to go find my search engine and reactivate it and make it default for the URL/Search bar to work again.
