bing keeps opening in a new tab when I search

I set Google as my default search but every so often a Bing tab opens alongside the results. Happens in Chrome and Edge. Could this be an extension or something installed with another program?

If it's the search box on the taskbar, that's by design, it always uses Bing and opens Edge. If it's happening in Chrome or Firefox, go through the extensions and remove anything you didn't add, then check the default search engine in settings. Also look in installed apps for anything new around when it started.
