What to do if the Yandex browser does not open. What to do if Yandex browser does not work? Yandex browser takes a long time to load

In the modern world, it is difficult to imagine life without the Internet. It is used for a variety of purposes: from simple surfing, small purchases, watching movies or social networks to serious business transactions. As a rule, using the World Wide Web begins with installing a browser. After all, the quality of your work will depend on this small program.

For a long time, Chome was considered one of the best browsers. Speed and functionality are the two main things with which it has earned its popularity. And this is to say nothing of the fact that the rights to Chrome belong to one of the world's largest giants, Google. But lately, references to “Yandex.Browser” have been heard more and more often. Let's take a look at its main advantages together and figure out why difficulties may arise in its operation.

Why Yandex?

Perhaps it’s worth starting with the fact that Yandex is not only a browser. This is the largest company that owns Internet portals, a search engine and has many services that integrate perfectly with each other. For example, "Yandex.Search", "Yandex.Maps", "Yandex.Wallet" and others are actively used by millions of users. Yandex.Browser is not far behind. By the way, if we talk about the interaction of services, then in this browser they are all called with one click. There is cloud storage, mail, information about traffic jams, as well as many other useful services.

I would like to pay tribute to the excellent synchronization of all devices on which Yandex.Browser is installed. If you started surfing the Internet, for example, on a PC, and then switched to a laptop, all those tabs and pages that you called earlier will automatically open. Technologies such as Abobe Reader and Abobe Flash are already built into the browser, which makes reading pdf documents and viewing various content much easier.

Separately, we can highlight security services. Here the developers did a good job, joining forces with Kaspersky Lab. Malicious sites are checked immediately upon loading, and spam will no longer bother you. Data Thief Detector will protect your information and keep it safe and secure.

Speed and interface

All owners of slow Internet should also pay attention to Yandex.Browser. In turbo mode, pages load much faster, the same applies to loading pictures, videos, music and other media. According to the Russian developers, they sought to make the browser experience as efficient as possible, in order to attract the user's attention only to important elements. Therefore, the interface is quite minimalistic.

If we draw a parallel with Chrome, in which visual bookmarks look like blocks of screenshots of recent site visits, then in Ya.Browser you can see site logos that will help you navigate faster. In addition, you can rearrange such blocks as you like and arrange them yourself in the order in which it is convenient for you. But sometimes users are faced with the question: why doesn’t Yandex.Browser open? Let's look at the possible reasons.

Why doesn't Yandex.Browser open?

It happens that browsers on your computer may freeze a little, and sometimes do not open at all. First of all, you need to pay attention to the operation of the operating system itself. It is not at all necessary that it needs a complete reinstallation. Sometimes a simple reboot is enough. There is no need to turn off the device completely and turn it on again. You can call up the "Start" menu, click on the small arrow next to "Shut down" and select "Restart" from the drop-down menu. After this, try opening the browser again. If the problem is still not resolved, and you still don’t understand why Yandex.Browser won’t open, read on.

Updates

Yandex browser developers constantly regulate the operation of their product and release updates quite often. If this process happens automatically for you, sometimes you may not even suspect that a particular program, including your browser, has been updated. When the update occurs, some glitches or errors may occur, and then the program will not work correctly. Or there will be a problem with the update, the new version will not load, and the old one will be automatically eliminated.

We advise you to manage the process of installing updates yourself and perform them manually, so you will always know what the possible cause of problems is. If you haven’t checked for updates before and don’t know why Yandex won’t open on your computer, you should delete the old version of the browser and download a new one. Usually this does not take more than 10-15 minutes. Go to "My Computer" and find "Add or Remove Programs", there select "Yandex.Browser" and remove it. Then download the new version from the official website of the program.

Viruses

This is one of the most common problems that interferes with the normal operation of not only the browser, but also other programs. And in this case, it is better to foresee such a situation and, when loading the OS, immediately install a powerful anti-virus program before starting to work with the Internet. So, when are there no apparent reasons? In this case, it is worth downloading a good antivirus program and checking your computer for malicious files. After this, they will be placed in so-called “quarantine” or completely removed.

Do not forget that there are different types of virus software, and in order to completely destroy it, sometimes a complete reinstallation of the operating system is required. If you do not understand, for example, why mail on Yandex or other services or sites does not open, then most likely this is also the work of virus files.

Other reasons why the browser may not start

You should also pay attention to the following points:

Sometimes there are too many applications running on your computer, which can cause your work to slow down. In such cases, new applications simply do not want to launch. You can control this process in the "Task Manager". You can open it by right-clicking on the taskbar (line at the bottom of the desktop), or using the combination Ctrl+Alt+Del. There you can see which programs are loading the system the most and stop them from running. You will be able to understand why Yandex takes a long time to open or does not open at all.
Pay attention to your internet connection. No matter how trivial it may seem, sometimes users look for the global cause of browser problems, but do not pay attention to the fact that there is simply no connection to the network.

Why does Yandex.Browser open on its own?

Most often, the reason for this may be the same malicious files that we discussed above. Advertising pages tend to open on their own, and with them the browser. A tab may also open on its own, or an additional window may appear. To prevent such processes, use computer cleaning programs, such as CCleaner. Test your PC, and the question of why Yandex.Browser opens on its own will disappear.

It also happens that the search engine we are considering does not open in some other browser. For example, you don’t understand why Yandex doesn’t open in Opera. In this case, try clearing the cache or updating the system.

The browser from Yandex has many advantages and unique features, such as Turbo mode, Zen, detailed interface settings and quick access to your favorite sites. You can download it from the official website (https://browser.yandex.ru/desktop/main/?ncrnd=6924) and, after going through the installation process, proceed to editing the appearance and adding useful sites to bookmarks. But after a while, due to some errors in the system, it may stop opening on the computer. Why do such problems happen and what can be done to solve the problem?

Why does Yandex.Browser not open or work incorrectly?

There are several reasons why the web surfer may have stopped launching. Perhaps the program components were damaged by a virus, or you tried to configure something yourself, but in the end you accidentally lost the settings responsible for launching the browser. Another option that is possible on weak, old or overly loaded computers is a lack of RAM to open a new application. Also, before opening Yandex.Browser, you should make sure that you are connected to the Internet. And the last thing that can cause this problem is a conflict between applications, or a malfunctioning antivirus.

Solution

Before proceeding with more complex and time-consuming methods, you need to try to fix the problem using simple methods.

Restarting the browser

The first thing to do with any program that refuses to work or launch correctly is to restart it.

Restarting the computer

The second thing to do when the application does not work as it should is to restart the device itself, since in this case all processes and programs will automatically end and then open, which may lead to them starting to work fully by themselves.

Terminating other processes

This option is relevant for users with weak computers or those who work in many programs at the same time.

Launch the task manager.
Go to the "Performance" section.
If CPU utilization is approaching 90-100%, follow these steps.
Go to the "Processes" section.
Shut down all processes that are not related to ensuring the health of the system. For example, select any third-party program and click the “End task” button.
Go to the “Startup” section.
We disable autorun of the maximum number of programs so that problems with the browser do not arise in the future.

Browser update

There are two options for updating Yandex Browser. The first, more convenient one, can only be used by those who have the opportunity to get into the browser menu. This method is more convenient because you will save all your bookmarks and previously entered passwords.

Expand the browser menu.
Expand the “Advanced” section.
Select the “About Browser” section.
In the window that opens, click the “Update” button.
We wait for the process to complete and restart the browser.

The second method is suitable for those who do not have access to the menu and browser settings. But in this case, you will need another browser to download the installation file.

Open the Windows Control Panel application.
Go to the “Programs” section.
Go to the “Uninstall programs” subsection.
Select Yandex Browser and click on the “Delete” button.
We confirm the action.
Open any other browser and follow the link (https://browser.yandex.ru/desktop/main/?ncrnd=6924).
Download the latest version of the installation file.
We go through the installation process and try to launch the browser.

Troubleshooting

If none of the previous methods for fixing the problem helped you, then you should take more serious steps.

Reinstalling the browser

To completely reinstall your browser, follow steps 1–8 from the previous “Updating your browser” instructions. This may solve the problem, since all files will be recreated and, accordingly, will not have errors in their code. If this does not help, it means that the error was not in the components of the browser, or some kind of virus corrupted them again. Follow the instructions in the following sections so that Yandex Browser will open again and perform the required tasks.

Removing viruses

There is a very high chance that a virus has penetrated your computer without your knowledge, blocking your browser’s access to the Internet or corrupting some files in it that are responsible for launching. In this case, you should find and remove the malicious program, and then reinstall the browser.

Open the antivirus installed on your computer.
Go to the “Antivirus” section.
We launch a full scan.
We wait for the end of the scanning process and remove the found viruses.
Let's try to launch the browser. If it still does not open, this means that the virus has damaged the files and requires a complete reinstallation of the browser.

Checking the network connection is working properly

The browser may stop opening if it cannot download the information needed to launch from the Internet. So before opening it, try following a link in another browser or starting downloading any file to make sure that the Internet downloads information to and from the device consistently and without loss of speed. Or go to the website

http://www.speedtest.net/ru/ and run an Internet speed test.

Resolving conflicts with other applications

The browser may conflict with malicious and other programs. It may refuse to launch or start working incorrectly, for example, if some application limits its capabilities or prevents it from performing assigned tasks. To see which applications are conflicting with your browser, go to browser://conflicts. In the window that opens, you will be presented with a list of programs and processes that interfere with the operation of Yandex Browser. Close them through the task manager and restart the browser.

Firewall issues

Many modern antiviruses have a built-in add-on - a firewall. It allows you to monitor Internet traffic costs and block Internet access to various applications. Perhaps this application mistakenly added the browser to the blacklist, which means that it needs to be removed from there.

We launch the antivirus installed on your computer.
Go to the “Tools” section.
Click on the Firewall tool icon.
In the window that opens, go to the Firewall section.
Uncheck the box or the fire icon opposite the Yandex browser.

What to do if nothing helps

If none of the previous methods for resolving the problem helped you, then write to Yandex support. Follow the link http://tinyurl.com/zywjjbj and fill out the form. In the “Description” column, explain the problem and what you have already done to fix it as accurately and clearly as possible. Attach a screenshot if you get an error when starting the browser. If the error appears only when you click on a specific link, then in the “Link” column, indicate the specific page on which you are experiencing the problem. Specify the email to which you will receive a response from the support service, click the “Submit” button and wait for a response within several business days.

If Yandex Browser stops launching or starts working incorrectly, then first try restarting it, then restart the device. Make sure you have the latest available browser version. If all else fails, reinstall your browser, check your computer for viruses and the network connection. Check whether the browser is conflicting with other applications, and whether your antivirus firewall is blocking it. If your problem is unique, and none of the above helped, send a letter describing your situation to the support service.

There are no perfect browsers. Even the seemingly most powerful, fast and popular browser can actually malfunction and be subject to glitches and errors. And the Yandex browser in this case is no exception. Users quite often encounter a problem when the Yandex browser does not work, does not want to start, or simply does not open pages. Let's figure out what to do in this case and how to eliminate such errors and make sure that they do not pop up in the future.

In general, there can be a lot of reasons why the browser from a popular Russian search engine has stopped launching. But we will consider only those due to which it does not work most often. And they, in principle and almost always, are the cause of a program failure. And we will try to solve the errors that prevent you from properly using all the capabilities of the World Wide Web.

Why doesn't Yandex Browser work?

Normal program crash.
Malicious programs that prevent it from working normally.
Other programs using a large amount of computer RAM.
Operating system malfunctions.
Damaged files.
Problems with temporary files in the registry.
Outdated browser version.

And so, we sorted out the problems. Now you can proceed directly to solving them.

This option can only be effective in cases where a temporary program failure has occurred. Then you can simply reboot the system, and the problem will go away on its own. Or, the method may be useful when the program is frozen. In short, in this way you can only solve an error that arose due to system overload or program file failure.

If the problem lies much deeper, then you will have to resort to more complex and drastic methods of treating browser ailments.

Removing viruses

Very often, Yandex browser does not start due to the fact that the computer has been infected with malware, which prevents the application from starting normally. Such a virus can be picked up very easily, especially if you do not have an antivirus installed or disabled, which prevents the threat from penetrating the system and harming it. Although in some cases, even an antivirus does not help, since every day many new viruses and Trojans are released and spread, which it has not yet learned to recognize.

If, nevertheless, you fell for hackers and accidentally downloaded a Trojan onto your computer and your browser stopped launching, then you need to immediately scan your computer for viruses. And if they are found, delete them immediately. Then restart the system and try to open the Yandex browser again. If it starts, then the problem is fixed. If not, then we move on to the next possible problem and try to remove it.

Other programs use a lot of RAM

Another reason why the Yandex browser flatly refuses to open is the lack of RAM and processor memory. What does it mean? Simply put, there are too many programs and applications installed on your computer that mercilessly eat up RAM. And when it is not enough, Windows simply physically cannot run the program, because there is absolutely no room left for it.

The solution to this problem is very banal and simple. All you need to do is disable programs that use a lot of RAM. You can do this by going to the Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del) and removing certain programs from the list. It’s even better to turn them off so that you don’t have to perform this action every time you start a computer, that is, a computer.

Clearing the DNS cache

This method turns out to be very effective in most cases and almost always allows you to get rid of the problem of Yandex Browser not working. Various static routes can be stored in the DNS cache, as a result of which the browser stops working normally and refuses to start, or becomes very slow and does not want to load any pages. Clearing it eliminates all these errors and returns the browser to normal operation.

How to clear cacheDNS:

That's it, clearing the cache is complete. To check whether the problem was resolved using similar actions, launch your browser. But before this, it is recommended to restart Windows. If it opens, then everything is fine, the error is cleared. If not, then you will have to do some more magic to achieve the desired result and bring the Yandex browser into full operation.

Cleaning the registry

Didn't all of the above steps help? Don't despair, because there are still ways that can help you get your browser back up and running. One of these is cleaning the registry files.

Registry files can become damaged if the program is closed incorrectly, any important files are deleted from the browser folder, or the program is not updated correctly. Also, the cause of a failure in the registry can be the same viruses, and quite often, they penetrate the registry and even their complete removal does not produce results as long as they are in the temporary files of the program.

How to clean the Yandex browser Registry:

Check if Yandex browser is working now. Most likely, it should start without problems.

Yandex browser takes a long time to load

It happens that the website browser starts without problems, but it takes a very long time. This happens as often as other errors associated with this browser. This problem can be solved using the same solutions described above. First try restarting your computer. If this is not enough, then check your computer for viruses, clear the cache and registry, and remove programs from the task manager that consume a large amount of RAM and place a heavy load on the processor. This should be more than enough for the program to work normally.

Also, the browser may slow down, and various errors may constantly appear. In all these cases, the methods described in this article will help you. If this does not help, then go straight to the very last point in this article.

Complete removal and reinstallation of Yandex Browser

If nothing helps, and the problem remains regardless of any of your actions, then you will have to resort to extreme measures. To be more precise, you need to completely remove the program and reinstall it. Moreover, it is recommended to download and install the latest version.

How to remove a browser from Yandex?

Before installing a newer version, you need to get rid of the old one. And now we will tell you how to do this.

And so, you deleted the Yandex browser and restarted the system. Great, but that's not all. There are traces of the program left on the system that must be removed. To do this, download CCleaner and clear the registry cache to get rid of unnecessary files that can cause crashes.

Installation

Now that the browser has been completely removed and all the “tails” from it have been cleaned, you can install it again.

To be sure of its functionality, download the latest version, and download it exclusively from the official website. To do this, go to https://browser.yandex.ru/desktop/main/ and click the “Download” button. That's it, the loading process has begun. Now you need to wait until it is completely downloaded.

If you have already downloaded or had the latest version of the Yandex browser on your computer, then open the installer and start the installation. I think everyone will figure this out. You just need to follow the installer's steps. And after installation is complete, be sure to restart your computer. This method should help in one hundred percent of cases and the browser will launch without problems and work without failures.

Yandex browser continues to gain popularity. More and more people are installing it. With all its advantages, it does not do without some rough edges. Many of you have probably encountered a problem where your browser refuses to open a web page.

Problems of this kind are usually divided into two groups: those related to the browser itself and those not related to it. It’s very easy to check which option your case belongs to. To do this, open some other browser. In addition to Yandex browser, this may be Opera , Safari , Google Chrome , Mozilla Firefox And Internet Explorer. If the desired link does not open there either, then the problem most likely has a direct connection with the connection to the network and the Internet.

Before starting any diagnostic work, make sure that the latest version of Yandex Browser is installed on your computer. You can just download Yandex Browser and install it on top of the version that is already installed.

Problems with the site

It is immediately necessary to highlight one more type of problem. Therefore, before switching to other programs for viewing web pages, check how the Yandex browser behaves with several more sites. If he switches to other Internet resources, then the problem is most likely with a specific site. But we can’t say that definitely. Why? We'll find out below.

Antivirus problems

In the majority free antiviruses It is possible to add a site to the "black list". So be sure to check the blacklist. Perhaps you weren't the one who added it there. If you give such rights, then antivirus programs can block access to those sites that they themselves consider unsafe.

Interesting fact: the opposite also happens, when access is blocked not by an antivirus, but by a virus. To find and remove it, perform a full scan of your computer.

Connection problems

Solutions to these problems are often standard: check the cable connection to the computer or router, check the router’s connection to the network, check the connection on the computer. If all of the above is normal, feel free to call your provider. It will tell you what other settings you can check. It is the provider's responsibility to determine what the problem is. It also happens that the reason may be a simple non-payment.

Problems with Yandex Browser

The most common problem of this kind is a system error. It is quite difficult to deal with it, so it is recommended to immediately carry out the processes of uninstalling and reinstalling Yandex Browser.

Another possible step is clearing cookies. This can be easily done through the Yandex Browser menu. Another option is to install a special program that will clear cookies on its own.

How to clear cookies in Yandex Browser yourself is shown in this screenshot in a video step-by-step diagram.

And finally, many believe that access to the site can be blocked ad blockers. Programs by type Adguard They primarily focus on eliminating advertisements. However, if the site is one continuous advertisement, then it may be that nothing will be displayed. But in such a case, this site will definitely not be useful, so the ad blocker here should only say “thank you very much.”
