Google search takes too long on Chrome, Edge, and Firefox (which is my main browser). Google Images is also slow, but when I click an image, it just stays black or dark without loading anything. In contrast, Bing and DuckDuckGo work fine on all three browsers. This started about a week ago after I deleted some programs from the Control Panel that I thought were useless, though I'm not sure if that was right. I tried many tricks online like clearing cache and data, resetting my browser to default settings, reinstalling them, but nothing helped. Any advice would be great. Thanks a lot! Edit: It's definitely not a slow internet connection problem.

It's actually solved now, but I think it might have been a proxy virus or some bad software on my computer that caused the trouble.

Checked out auto, Google, and Cloudflare. Got the exact same thing back.

It's all fixed now! Turns out it was a proxy issue, maybe even a fake virus, on my computer.
