is there a shortcut key for "all settings" DDG search engine?

Would be great to disable duckduckgo's keyboard highjacking.
For example: if I type hellow and press Home button I end up with helloworld instead of having the prompt at start of my typed search in order to correct the hellow to a yellow. Forget using the arrow keys those make an even worse mess, and using mouse to click that h to change to y then automatically puts cursor at end of yelloworld for yet again another unwanted action. Clicked DDG's "all settings" (on main page) and set Keyboard Shortcuts etc to OFF to no effect, its been months and I've even used uBlock origin to disable javascript and saw how DDG becomes even more completely useless at that point.
DDG is so frustrating I often use google again, thanks for all the fish.

How can I add Duckduckgo on my window, instead of pressing Google and then pressing Duckduckgo to search the web?

If you're using Chrome, DuckDuckGo asks you to install its Chrome extension, when you visit their page. Just follow the instructions or take a look at https://duckduckgo.com/install?t=h_
