Bing returns http 400 errors…

Maybe the search engine url is malformed?
I've just recreated it and I get -
Looking at the screenshot you provided, you seem to have malformed the %s parameter - shows as &q_vivaldi instead of &q=vivaldi
The default (Vivaldi) string I have is https://www.bing.com/search?pc=cosp&ptag=AD6C08C471A&form=CONBDF&conlogo=CT3210127&q=%s

I don't know why it would be considered malformed by Vivaldi, I used the Quick Command window and typed 'bing'.
I had no problem on my work machine using Quick Command. -
Search via quick command seems to add a + before every keyword, it has been already reported in another thread.

Looks like no search term works with Quick command. I can however cut'n paste the search URL into Chrome and have it resolve.
This only stopped working today, and I've been using it for a few weeks now.https://www.bing.com/search?pc=cosp&ptag=AD6C08C471A&form=CONBDF&conlogo=CT3210127&q=vivaldi

It's called choice, everyone has a favourite band or soccer team, for no actual reason they all differ.

A bit off topic, but I'm not sure why Bing is the default search engine, sure everyone hates Google, so do I, but Google has the most relevant results ever, besides the whole search engine has the most features, especially for images - you can search by size, visually similar or upload your own. As much as I hate Google, I can't swap it for anything else as it will be a waste of time.
In that notion, my personal suggestion is to stick with Google if you want work done.
I started defaulting to Bing earlier this year because it focuses on the first result with just a Tab press, then Down arrow to cycle through them, and finally Enter to go to the link. Chrome used to do this but stopped a few years ago.

Had to restart my computer. Restarting Vivdaldi didn't work; logging out/in didn't work. Only a full power cycling of the whole computer cleared things up. Now all search terms work with Quick command.

Also, I found shopping through Bing to be better; more results, more stores, better product images, etc..
Google's good for programming terms, and difficult topics, and more invovled searching, but for a lot of my daily needs, Bing works and is easier to use. -
I'm with you, even I don't even care about bing or another search engine in existance, but I respect freedom of choice. If ppl are scared to use google, let them use anything else.
