UK Google version taken over homepage
I use google.com as my homepage. I am in the United States. All of a sudden it has changed to google.co.uk version. I try to enter google.com but it changes back when I hit enter. Any Ideas? Thanks

Hello,
Please try connecting to www.google.com/ncr instead. Google might be detecting your IP address incorrectly. You may let them know about it here:

Re: UK Google version taken over homepage
Thank you for your quick response. What you suggested worked. When I hit the home button the browser stays on google.com but it still shows a link to hit to take you to Google.co.uk. underneath the search bar. I don't know why that is but so far so good. Thank you very much!!

Glad I could help! 
It's probably Google's mistake. This happens to some people occasionally, and most of the time it takes them to the Google UK.
