My mom is having a recurring issue with her laptop where the default search engine keeps switching back to Yahoo from Google. She uses Google Chrome exclusively, and this change happens every couple of weeks, even after she manually sets it back to Google. It just happened again today, and she's looking for a permanent solution to stop Yahoo from taking over or to completely remove it from her laptop. Any ideas?

It sounds like there could be a browser extension or possibly some pre-installed software that's interfering with Chrome's settings. I had a similar issue with a Lenovo laptop because of a McAfee Chrome plugin that activated a 'safe search' feature and switched my search engine to Yahoo automatically. Check if there's anything like that on her laptop!
