Why can't I add google.co.uk to the search bar on Microsoft Edge?

I've just upgraded to Windows 10 and I'm trying to set google.co.uk as the default search bar, but it only gives me google.com or bing.

Google.com gives me US searches not UK

I cannot add any other search option, what is going on?

Hello Jay,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting your query.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused, I will certainly help you with this issue.

Bing is the default search engine in Microsoft Edge. However you can also add other sites in that list but cannot remove Bing from the list. Before following the steps in the below link, you need to open google.co.uk search engine in edge so that edge can discover it and list it as an option.

You may refer to the below article to change the default search engine in Microsoft Edge:
