I really do not like that after each new installation of Cent I have to re-sort (I delete all search engines and then add again, in the order to which I'm used). the search engines to make my usual order of priority in the context menu "search in". Is there anything you can do about it? To consolidate the sequence after reinstalling.
Please try appending "--cb-disable-auto-detect-search-provider" in "Other settings"->"Startup command line".
Search engines are stored in the file "User Data\Default\Web Data", you may backup it after editing.
You may use the backed file to overwrite the current one if search engines are disordered.

Thanks for that! I will try it!

Seems Chromium will sort up these engines by your usage frequency.
We will try to find a way to disable this behavior and keep their order not changed.

You can sort it up in 3.7, and overwrite the one in 3.9 with the one from 3.7
"Web Data" in lower version can overwrite higher one, but the converse is not allowed.
Chromium will increase the version number of "Web Data" automatically if it is from lower version.

Thanks for help !
We checked again the search engine order.
Seems Chromium doesn't adjust it automatically.
Please try deleting "User Data\Default\Web Data-journal" after editing search engines and closing the browser.
Or "RESET SYNC" in https://chrome.google.com/sync
And there is a freeware named DB Browser for SQLite can be used to view details inside "Web Data".
Thanks for the explanation, I think it will be useful not only to me.
