A: DeTrack works best with the privacy-protecting Tor browser. Versions 48+ of Mozilla's official Firefox browser are also supported.
DeTrack's diagnostic DeGoogled tag gives a convenient visual cue to whether or not the add-on is functioning correctly. If the DeGoogled status indicator does not appear in the top left corner of google.com search pages, then refreshing your browser and/or clearing its cache should allow DeTrack to return to correct functioning. See https://imgur.com/u3blptX.
If, after taking those corrective measures, DeTrack still does not appear to have successfully DeGoogled google.com search pages, I'd be thrilled to look into it for you. Please shoot me a private message at my Reddit inbox.
