Changing Abrowser search to the normal DuckDuckGo

I have the default search engine in ABrowser as DuckDuckGo HTML
"https://html.duckduckgo.com".
How can I change it to be the normal DuckDuckGo, namely
"https://duckduckgo.com"?
Hi Heime,
C-l (shortcut to select URL bar) -> enter duckduckgo.com -> C-l again and at the bottom it'll say "this time search with:" and to the right there is a listing of icons and there should be a duck icon
with a green plus on the top right.
Clicking that icon will add the search engine and then you can set that to default in Settings -> Search -> dropdown box.
Yes, this is a really bad way to add a search engine, but Mozilla couldn't help themselves.
Doing so is really a mistake considering the inferior experience of proprietary JavaScript execution.

The duck icon is the "DuckDuckGo HTML", not the one with the green plus.
I am using Abrowser 136.0.4 (64-bit).

Yes, there will be the existing duckduckgo html leftmost and to the right there should be an option to add a new search engine with a green plus (there could possibly be just a default icon).
If you have JavaScript disabled, you will be automatically redirected to duckduckgo html.
