Hi, I am trying in vain to get "google.com.au" or "google.fr" or whatever. It always snaps back to "google.com". Irrespective whether I use Crome or Firefox. How can I get these "other googles" temporarily, please?
Thanks, androcubc

P.S. With my laptop, Linux and Firefox no problem at all. Despite the homepage is set to google.com, I can switch to any google (fr, com.au, co.uk), whatever. I just type it into the address field of the browser.
 
You can change the search results to another country in the Google site's settings, but that will still give you "google.com."

Have you considered using a VPN?

FYI, if I try to type "google.com.au" in my Chromebook, it still automatically reverts to "google.com".
