How do i revert to the default google search engine in chrome?

Most sites have a simple querystring search, like http://mysite/search/?query=%s , but Google has some weird query string, and I'm not sure how to restore it.

You can goto

Settings > Manage Search Engines
in Google Chrome and you can add Google Search Engine again. This is how

  1. In the bottom you will find
    Other Search Engines
    and below that text boxes for adding a new search engine.
  2. Give Name -
    Google
    Keyword -
    google.com
    and paste the below code in the URL box: {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&{google:RLZ}{google:acceptedSuggestion}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}{google:instantExtendedEnabledParameter}ie={inputEncoding}

I hope this helps
