Default page Yandex. Yandex - setting up the main page, registration and login, as well as the history of the company's formation

Modern browsers can be used and customized as you wish.

Any user can independently configure their favorite web portal and make it their home page.

However, this function is not available only to the Yandex browser.

This article, which clearly describes the next steps, will help you solve this issue and get out of an unclear situation.

The Yandex search engine does not support a function that allows you to customize and install the start page on your computer. It should be noted that this browser only displays the visual tab board on each new tab.

Accordingly, these tabs consist of portals visited by users. Therefore, in this option there is only one way out, that is, you will have to launch a scoreboard that will display several interesting portals on the screen.

As a result of this, you need to open the Yandex browser in a new tab and delete unnecessary bookmarks. Mostly, users do not use all system programs. Therefore, you need to hover over the tab with the mouse and click on the cross.

After this, you can use one or several web portals at once. Because in the future, the page will display your saved websites. If desired, the user can add any other page that is not displayed in this tab.

To add a new web portal, you will have to click “Add”. The portal address should be entered into the search engine of any browser, for example, Google. Then you need to click on the “Done” button.

To instantly launch the start page, you need to go to the menu and click on the button located in the right side of the upper corner. The “Settings” item will appear in the list. When going to the Yandex browser settings, you will have to click on the “Open at startup” option.

To configure the start page of other browsers, you need to perform completely different steps. These issues are covered in another article.

How to Customize Your Background in Minutes

Sometimes users get tired of old web portals and backgrounds, and accordingly, they want to change to another one. In this case, you will have to take the advice of experts who carefully talk about the stages of changing themes in the Yandex browser.

To establish the appearance, you only need to master certain skills. The process is quite simple. Therefore, people who have a Yandex browser configured can easily cope with the task and remake the appearance of the browser to their liking.

According to the developers, the Yandex browser quite often updates its functions and offers innovative innovations. Multi-million users often follow the news and try to keep up to date with events so as not to miss an important detail.

Therefore, now everyone can use the new interface. However, it is worth noting that this interface does not install third-party themes. Solving the problem is very easy. You just need to disable this feature.

First, you should launch the browser and click on the button located in the right side of the upper corner. A list will open in front of you where you need to select “Settings”. After which a line with the name “appearance settings” will open on the screen.

Clicking “turn off new interface” can fix the problem. Once the process is complete, you will have the opportunity to set the background. To do this, to select the images you like most, you can use the Google and Chrome stores. There are a huge number of topics presented here.

Home Page Settings

The easiest way to set up a home page is to go to the official portal using the link home.yandex.ru. Next, you need to download an application that will configure the home page automatically. Accordingly, you will have to select a suitable browser from the list above:

  • Opera,
  • Safari,
  • Chromium,
  • Mozilla,

By clicking on the “Browser Options” and “General” sign, a text field will appear where you need to specify https://www.yandex.ru/. Then select the “Apply” option. At the bottom of the page, you should find the “View advanced options” option.

This function is in the parameters. Then, you will have to enable the “Display home page button” function. When specifying the official Yandex website, you must confirm with the “Save” option. These instructions will be useful to those users who use Internet Explorer.

First, a few words for those who don’t know or don’t understand well what it is browser.

When you and I open the Internet, we launch a special program for this. In it we search and read information (websites), check email, communicate on social networks.

There are several such programs for the Internet. Here are the most popular:

Most likely, you use one of them to browse the Internet. This very program is called a browser.

What is it start page? This is a site that loads immediately as soon as you open your browser.

You can assign any address to this site: your favorite search engine, news, email site, social network or anything else.

Or, on the contrary, you can remove the address. It just happens that it is already configured in the program. Then, every time you open your browser, a website you don’t need automatically opens. You can generally make it so that no address will be opened.

So, to summarize:

Start or Homepage- this is some kind of site that opens immediately when you open the browser. You can specify its address yourself or remove it altogether.

For example, when I go to the Internet, that is, I open a browser, the Mail.ru website immediately loads for me. I didn’t set it up specifically - it always opened for me on its own. This very site is the start page of my browser.

If, when you open a browser, no site automatically loads, it means there is no start (home) page. This is normal - many people find it even more convenient. But others, on the contrary, need such a page.

For example, I start every time I go online by checking my email. This means that it would be more convenient for me to set the address of my email site as the home page. Then you wouldn’t have to open it manually every time - it would load itself.

Who set my start page

It often happens that we ourselves have not assigned anything, but the page still opens. It's like it was already set up.

Indeed, sometimes this happens: some browsers already have a start page. That is, a certain website is initially “sewn” into it, which will open every time the program is launched.

But it also happens differently: out of the blue a page began to pop up, although it wasn’t there before. That is, before, when the browser was launched, nothing would open, but then suddenly a website started loading.

This usually happens after a new program has been installed on the computer.

It happens like this. You have downloaded some program and are starting to install it. As a rule, to do this you need to click on the “Next” button several times. And at one of these stages it is written in small font that the start page will be replaced.

There will even be a bird installed there. By the way, you can remove it and then there will be no replacement, but who reads all this... It turns out that we sort of ourselves, of our own free will, assigned a new home page.

Another situation in which page substitution occurs is a computer virus. But this is such an obvious replacement that it is simply impossible not to replace it.

How to make a start page

You can always change the start page: either assign the desired site yourself, or disable it altogether.

To do this, you just need to change one small setting in your browser. But, of course, each such program has its own setting. It is also worth considering that you can see the result only after the program is closed and reopened.

Instructions for setting up the start page in your browser will open if you click on its icon:

To enlarge a picture, simply click on it, and use the arrows to go to the next or previous step.

Google Chrome

  1. Open Google Chrome browser.
  2. Click on the button with the image of horizontal lines (on the right, at the end of the address bar).
  3. In the “Initial group” section, select one of three options:

Quick access page. If you select this option, then every time you open your browser, something like a directory will be loaded with sites that you have recently visited. There will also be a Google search bar.

Continue work from the same place. In this case, tabs will open with sites that you loaded in the browser the last time and did not close.

Next pages: add. Here you can set the start page or several pages at once. To add a site address, click on the “Add” link.

Opera

Continue from the same place. In this case, every time you start the browser, those tabs with sites that you loaded in the browser last time and did not close will open.

Open home page. This is something like a directory with your favorite sites, the so-called “Express Panel”.

Open a specific page or multiple pages. Here you can specify a site or several sites that will open as the start page. To add an address, click on the “Set Pages” link.

If you cannot complete these steps, it means that an earlier version of Opera is installed on your computer. In this case, you need to configure the home page differently:

  1. Open the Opera program.
  2. Click on the small button at the very top left - usually called “Opera” or “Menu”. Point to “Settings” and select “General Settings” from the list.
  3. In the window that appears (in the “Basic” tab), tell the browser how to behave when it starts.
    If you want the start page to open, then select “Start from the home page” and enter its address just below.
  4. Click “OK” in the window.

Mozilla Firefox

    If you want the start page to open, then select “Show home page” and in the next field indicate the desired site.
  6. Click “OK” in the window.

Yandex

Open quick access page. In this case, every time you open your browser, something like a directory will be loaded with the sites you have recently visited.

Restore tabs opened last time. If you select this item, then when you start Yandex, those tabs with sites that you loaded last time and did not close will open.

You can also set the checkbox to “Open www.yandex.ru if there are no tabs.” Then, if you closed all the tabs the last time, then when you start the browser, the Yandex website will open.

Internet Explorer

1. Open Internet Explorer.

2. Click on the “Service” inscription at the top of the program or on the button with the image of a gear and select “Browser Options” from the list.

3. In the window at the top (the “General” tab) there is a part called “Home Page”. In the large white field, most likely, there will be some kind of website address - the start page. To change it, you just need to erase this address and type another one. Then it will open every time you start Internet Explorer.

But to prevent anything from opening, you just need to click on the “Use new tab” button. Then, when you start the program, a list of sites that have recently been opened in it will be displayed.

By the way, just below, in the “Startup” section, you can configure the browser so that upon startup, previously opened but not closed tabs are opened. To do this, click on “Start with tabs opened in previous session.”

4. Click on the “Apply” button and then on the “OK” button at the bottom.

The start page is the site, the web page that loads along with the browser when it starts. This may be your personal website, the status of which you check daily, a weather page in your city, a search engine.

This is a very convenient browser feature. I will show you how to make Yandex the start page in Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer browsers.

How to Set Home Page in Internet Explorer

There is a lesson on the site - where to download to update and how to configure it. However, so that you don’t waste time searching for information, in this lesson I will show you how to make Yandex the start page in the IE browser

In the Tools menu, select Internet Options.

Setting up Yandex as the home page

On the General tab, in the Home page 1 field, insert the address of the page that you want to make the start page, for example, the main page of the Yandex search engine.
Switch switch 2 to the Start from home page position.

After that, click the Apply button 3 and OK 4.
That's it, the start page is installed. Close your browser and launch it again to check it.

Setting Yandex as your home page allows you to automatically open the popular Russian search engine on the first page when you open your browser and have an Internet connection. Many people find this convenient. This is why the request how to make Yandex the start page is so popular? We have already looked at how to do this for on the pages of our website, and now we will do it for Yandex.

Setting up the start page in Mozilla Firefox. We launch Firefox (we are using the latest version 13.0.1 at the time of writing) and write yandex.ru in the address bar and press Enter so that we are on the Yandex main page. You will understand why to do this later. In the upper left corner of the browser, click the orange Firefox button and select the “Settings” menu item in the left column. In the settings window that opens, go to the “Basic” tab if we are currently in another tab. In this tab, make sure that in the line “When starting Firefox:” there is “Show home page” and click the “Use current page” button, then click “OK”. Thus, we made Yandex the start page. To check this, you can close and open your browser again. Yandex should load as the main page.


Setting up the start page in Google Chrome.
We used Google Chrome 20.0.1132.47 as a test subject to show you how to make Yandex the start page in this browser. The interface is a bit unusual compared to other browsers. We also open the Yandex main page by entering yandex.ru in the address bar of the browser and pressing Enter. All other pages except Yandex on other tabs need to be closed. Next, click on the image of a wrench in the upper right part of the browser and select the “Settings” menu item. In the window that opens, in the left column, select the “Settings” section if you are not currently in them. In the settings we work with the “Initial group” block. Click on the “Add” link. A window opens that lists the start pages that launch when the browser opens. By clicking on the “Use current pages” button, we will set Yandex as the starting page in Chrome. Click “Ok” and close and open Chrome again to check that the settings are correct.



Setting the start page in Opera.
For the demonstration we used browser version 12.0. We follow the same algorithm that we used to set Yandex as the start page in Firefox. In the address bar of the browser, type yandex.ru and press Enter so that the Yandex start page opens in front of us. Next, press the Opera button in the upper left corner, select “Settings” from the menu that appears, and select “General Settings” from the next pop-up submenu. You can also call up General Settings by pressing the Ctrl and F12 key combination on your keyboard. In the window that appears, select the “General” tab if you didn’t get to it right away. In this tab, in the “At startup” window, set the value to “Start from the home page” and set it in the “Home” window by clicking on the “Current page” button. Click “OK.” The settings are saved, Yandex is now set as the main page.


Setting the start page in Internet Explorer 9.
We proceed by analogy with the Firefox and Opera browsers. Open the Yandex start page by typing yandex.ru in the address bar and pressing Enter. Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the browser. In the menu that appears, select “Internet Options”. Go to the “General” tab if we didn’t get to it initially. In the “Home Page” group, click the “Current” button, then at the bottom of the window click “Apply” and “Ok”. Now, when you open Internet Explorer, we are taken to Yandex by default.


Setting the start page in Safari.
Safari is not as popular among Windows users as the previous four browsers we reviewed, but it is nonetheless one of the top five most popular browsers. It is especially popular among fans of Apple computers. Therefore, we decided to consider how to make Yandex the start page for it too. The latest version at the time of writing was 5.1.7. We used it in the examples. We do everything according to the scheme already familiar to us. Launch Safari and open the Yandex main page in it. Let's go to settings. To do this, on computers running the Windows operating system, click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the browser and select the “Settings...” menu item. As you can see from the menu, the same can be done by pressing the key combination Ctrl (Control) and “,” (comma) on the keyboard.


On computers running the Mac OS X operating system, click on the Safari section in the general menu bar at the top of the screen with the browser active and “Settings” in it, or call up the settings using the Cmd (command) and “,” (comma) key combination.


Further settings are similar for Windows and Mac OS X. In the settings window, go to the “Basic” tab, where we check that “Home page” is in the “Open in new windows:” line. After that, a little lower under the “Home Page” line, click the “Current Page” button. Unlike other browsers, you don’t need to click “OK” or “Apply” here. Just close the window and thereby save the settings. Apple's approach and pursuit of simplicity and difference in action.


Of course, there are other ways to make Yandex your start page. For example, you can initially not open the Yandex main page and not click the “Current Page” button, but simply write the correct address in the appropriate line by hand. But these are all special cases that you will definitely cope with on your own after reading this article.

If you have long dreamed of making Yandex your home page, but you don’t get around to it, or you don’t know how to do it, this article is for you.

By the way, what happens when Yandex is set as the start page? When you click the browser icon, the Search Engine web page automatically opens.

Knowing how to set a particular web page as your home page is useful. You can always make the page you are interested in the starting page and not waste extra time. We decided to take Yandex as an example, since this search engine is recognized as the most used in Russia.

The algorithm for setting the home page is approximately the same for most browsers.

We will take a detailed look at how to make yandex.ru the start page for:

  • Mozilla Firefox;
  • Opera;
  • Google Chrome;
  • Internet Explorer;
  • Yandex Browser;
  • Safari.

  • find the “Default Browser” block;

Another convenient addition to Google Chrome is visual bookmarks. They help you navigate to pages you are interested in in one click.

Tabs are small thumbnails of frequently visited pages. In the settings, you can change their number, color, general background, and also delete or add new bookmarks.

Their main advantage is saving a person’s time.

The user probably wanted to install Yandex virtual tabs in Chrome. We remind you that this option is available for Google Chrome, Opera and Mozilla Firefox browsers.

Let's look at how to add a virtual bookmarks option using Google Chrome as an example:


Yandex visual bookmarks are one of the most popular tools among users. This is not surprising, since they are useful, convenient and are constantly updated by the developers.

Similar to Google Chrome's virtual bookmarks, this browser supports a tile panel with visited sites. It is possible to delete unnecessary sites and add new ones. This is done through the “Settings” – “Add” buttons.

For people who do not like dubious sites, the Russian giant has developed a special version of the browser - family Yandex. You can safely allow your children to access the computer - unnecessary information and suspicious sites are strictly filtered.
