I don't see this issue on my machine. Can you check if this only happens to search engine settings or is it happening to other settings on your machine as well? If it applies to all other settings then there is something wrong with your system.

Can confirm that.

As suggest, i change another setting too (font size) and that works without problems.
But not so the search engine change
