User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0

Steps to reproduce:

Version 94.0.1 and 94.0.2 were automatically installed.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0

Actual results:

When I restarted, Google was at once my default search engine and the superfluous engines like Amazon and Wikipedia were also present again whilst I had them removed in the past.

Expected results:

My settings for the search engines should be preserved.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Search' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Hi, im unable to reproduce this, so i installed firefox 94.0.1 and removed amazon and wikipedia, then updated firefox to 94.0.2 and those engines were not visible. Should i be doing something more? or those are the correct steps?

Without more information we are unfortunately unable to take this further. I suspect it might be a similar issue/duplicate of bug 1691706.

Closing as incomplete due to the lack of information. If you are willing to provide more as requested in my previous comment, please feel free to re-open.
