How to make the old Yandex start page. How to make Yandex the start page in different browsers? How to make a start page in Yandex.Browser
Starting work with any of the modern browsers, you invariably end up on it start page, which becomes the starting point for further web surfing. Most well-known network browsers allow you to freely configure this area of the program. To enhance your browsing experience, you can easily set as your home screen specific website. Many users on the Web are worried about a completely fair question: “How to make your own start page in Yandex Browser?” In this short article we will try to give a comprehensive answer on this topic.
The solution of the problem
Unfortunately, it is impossible to fully configure such an important parameter as the home page in Yandex Browser. Instead, the developers of this network browser offer us to make a choice from two possible options, but first things first. By default, when the program starts, it loads main page site yandex.ru, and if any other tabs were opened during the previous session, they are automatically restored. You can change the initial script of your browser using the corresponding section of the program. To do this, click on the Yandex Browser Settings button, which can be found in the upper right part of the window, and then select Settings from the list of available options that appears.
After completing the previous step, scroll the mouse wheel a little lower to find an item called "Open at startup". Here you can only choose two options:
- Board with your favorite sites. When you launch the browser, the most frequently visited network resources will always be displayed.
- Previously opened tabs. After loading the program, the sites that were opened during the previous session will be shown.
The second item includes the ability to open yandex.ru if there are no tabs. Change this scenario can be done by clicking on the checkbox next to it.
This is how we set up the home page in Yandex Browser, since there are no alternatives yet.
Conclusion
Since it is impossible to completely change the start page in Yandex Browser, this feature served as a weighty reason for criticizing this product. Many users believe that the ability to set any website as the home screen of a web browser is an integral part of it. However, Yandex has a different opinion, which is most likely due to a rather aggressive promotion of its own services on the market. One way or another, let's hope that the developers will listen to the wishes of users and in new version Yandex Browser will add this missing feature to their product.
Greetings friends. Today, I will tell you how to change the start page in Yandex browser in one interesting and, if I may say so, tricky way. The thing is that in the settings of this browser there is no way to specify the start page, the developers simply did not provide for this.
But, let's go through in order, perhaps other launch methods will also be useful to you.
Launch Yandex browser and in the right upper corner press the button with 3 horizontal stripes, then select Settings.
In the window that appears, we need a block called "Open at startup" and its two options:
1) Scoreboard with favorite sites– when you start the browser, a window with bookmarks of sites, the so-called quick access panel to sites, will be displayed.
2) Previously opened tabs- when you select this option, the tabs of the last session of work will be automatically opened when you start the browser. Here, if desired, you can check the item Open www.yandex.ru if there are no tabs.
As you can see from the proposed options, there is no way to set the start page. But, especially for you friends, I figured out how to change the start page in Yandex browser in one interesting way.
So, in the browser, go to the site or its page that you want to make start. Then hover your mouse over open tab and right-click it, select Pin Tab.
Important point! In order for this method to work, it is necessary to select the option in the settings block "On startup" - Board with favorite sites.
By the way, you can set several pages for them auto start. To do this, you just need to pin the tabs you need.
Good day.
I am almost sure () that almost every user, accessing the Internet, is interested in (at least) the most ordinary things: what will the weather be like tomorrow, what is going on in the World (i.e. news), what interesting films show how the dollar / ruble "feels" there (recently relevant for our country). It is so?
If you count, in order to find out such information - you need to visit 3÷5 sites! You can, of course, do it this way, but in my opinion it's much better to set up a sub-yourself Yandex home page and get this information in its entirety by visiting one web page. In addition, after reading all the news, you can immediately go to the search. Very comfortably!
Actually, in this article I will show how to install Yandex as the start page in the browser, I will give some basics of setting up and the capabilities of the service. I think that many, having set up their browser once, will be able to significantly save time. (and time is money) !
How to make it start in the browser
Perhaps the article should begin with how to generally make it so that when the browser starts, the Yandex home page automatically opens. (i.e. not to open any "Favorites" tabs and not follow links from any menu).
Method 1
If you have not visited the main Yandex for a long time (the link was given above), then when you visit it, a small window will pop up in the corner of the screen with a suggestion to change the main page. If you don't mind, just agree...
Method 2
You can do everything manually. I will consider several popular browsers below.
Google Chrome
First, open the browser settings. Can be done in 2 ways:
- or in the upper right corner of the window, click on the "three" dots;
- or paste the following address into the address bar of your browser: chrome://settings/
Actually, after restarting the browser, you will see that Yandex has automatically opened for you ...
Mozilla Firefox
In general, almost everything is done in this browser identically (as in Chrome): first, open the settings (alternative way- go to page about:preferences#home ) .
Firefox (start) / Clickable
By the way, please note that when working in Firefox, you can open the home page at any time: just click on the "house" icon next to the address bar.
Microsoft Edge
First you need to open options(to do this, click on the icon in the upper right corner of the "three dots", and find this item in the menu).
Further it is necessary in the subsection "Show in new Microsoft Edge window" choose an option "A specific page or pages" and specify the desired web address (see the example below in the screenshot).
If the page cannot be installed
As an addition...
If you are unable to change the start page in the browser, you may have "caught" a virus (note: many of them block the ability to change the page. Another option is also possible: the settings can be changed, but after restarting the browser, the "old" page opens again) .
If you are faced with a similar problem, I recommend that you read a couple of my articles:
- programs for removing Malware, ads from browsers, malware that antiviruses do not see -
- How to remove a virus from a browser - in 5 steps -
Choosing your city and setting the theme
Further, what I would recommend to do (after switching to Yandex and setting it as the start page) is to indicate your city (in general, usually the search engine determines it automatically, but this does not always happen correctly) . This will allow you to know about all the news of your city, incidents, posters, etc.
This is done quite simply: in the upper right corner of the screen, click on the link "setting" and go to the city specification section. See screenshot below.
There is an option like automatic detection your location and manual adjustments. In general, everything is quite simple.
Please note that after specifying your city: you will be able to quickly view all the events and news taking place in it. It is very comfortable!
In addition to the city, also would note that you can change default theme to something more interesting (for example, many make it darker, more contrasting). To do this, just select an option among the settings (see the example below).
Theme Selection / Clickable
After selecting one of the topics, the search engine will change (for example, I installed New Year's Eve ...).
Important!
All settings made on the Yandex home page will be saved only in the browser in which you made them. For them to "act" always and in any browser - get yourself a profile on Yandex (for example,).
Note: To register, you only need to provide your initials and phone number (for security and confirmation of some transactions). See screenshot below.
How to remove or move some blocks
Some of the blocks on the Yandex home page (for example, maps, a TV program, weather, traffic jams, etc.) can either be deleted or moved to another more convenient location.
To do this, you need to use the tab "Settings/Configure Yandex" .
After that, you will see that each block is highlighted in gray, and a cross has appeared in its corner. Now you can simply close everything unnecessary, and move the rest to a more convenient place.
When all the blocks are placed in their places - just press the button "Save" in the bottom corner of the screen. Further, all blocks will be fixed, and will be displayed in this form every time you visit Yandex.
How to set the exchange rate (choose currencies to display)
In Yandex, the exchange rate is very conveniently "attached" (right above the search bar). If you click on the "three dots" next to the rate, you can see stock quotes of the main currencies (dollar, ruble, oil).
By the way, on the quotes page - there is also a settings option (you can add other currencies that you would like to watch).
I note that the possibilities are quite extensive: you can even track the Bitcoin rate (in addition, Yandex can mark sharp fluctuations in the rate with a separate color, which is also convenient).
Added quotes start to be displayed (and tracked) immediately after you save the settings. In general, it’s quite convenient to find out in time what happened to the ruble ...
How to customize a news feed sub-yourself (by your interests)
On the main page of Yandex (if you scroll it a little lower, under the poster and films) there is a ribbon (Zen). In general, it is formed automatically (with the help of artificial intelligence) based on your interests. And quite often interesting life news pops up in it, which it would be nice to know about in advance ...
Automation is automatic, but the Zen feed can also be formed based on personal added channels (for example, you can add sites on cars, economics, politics - depending on your tastes) . To do this, click on the link "Zen" (see screenshot below).
After that, you will see dozens of sections: auto, home, business, food, etc. Select one of the sections that interest you.
After that, you will see dozens of different popular portals that you can subscribe to. For example, I chose "Mail Auto"- and now posts on automotive topics will flicker among the tape. Very convenient!
Of course, you can add dozens of different interesting portals to your liking (similarly). Thus, the news feed will delight you with interesting events every day...
That's all for now. Successful work!

This step will allow your browser to immediately open Yandex services when it is launched, one of which is a search engine.
So, you can enter Yandex in several ways. For example, you can enter a query in any search engine containing keyword Yandex. Typically, the next page will open a list of available sites containing that keyword. You will need the line "Yandex - search engine and Internet portal". It is usually listed first. Click on this link and go to the main page of Yandex. This way to go to Yandex is affordable, but inconvenient. As well as constant input into the search or address bar yandex.ru. Therefore, if among the various search engines you prefer Yandex, it is best to set it as your home page.
To do this, open the "main page" of the service by clicking on the link yandex.ru. Find the underlined inscription "Set Yandex as the start page" in the upper left corner of the new page. Click the link and launch the browser: now it will immediately open from Yandex.

Take a close look at the work panel, find the "Settings" option. Depending on the browser model, it can be located in different places, but most often in the "tools" tab. Open the bookmark, find the "Home" section and enter the address of the home page you need in the field.

However this way, although simple, does not always work. This is due to the fact that some browsers do not support Yandex. As a rule, these are browsers with a built-in search for "Mail". It is impossible to set the Yandex home page. In this case, you can only perform several transitions to open the Yandex search engine.
If you are using a browser Internet Explorer, on the toolbar, click the gear icon. Then go to the "Internet Options" section, and from it to the "General" subsection. Enter the address https://www.yandex.ru/ in the text field. Then click the "Apply" and "OK" buttons to fix the result.
If you prefer Microsoft Edge, click the ellipsis icon and go to Settings. At the bottom of the page, find and click the "View advanced options" button. When the next window opens, enable the "Show home button" option. Then enter the address https://www.yandex.ru/ in the text field and click the "Save" button.
If you prefer Mozilla browser Firefox, on the top toolbar, find the icon with three horizontal stripes, open "Settings" and select the "General" section. In the field "When firefox launch» check the box "Show home page". Then in the field Homepage» Specify the Yandex address - https://www.yandex.ru/.
If you are using Opera browser, press combination Alt keys+ P. Then go to the Browser tab, and then to the "On startup" block. Click the "Set Pages" link button. Then in the "Add new page» enter the address https://www.yandex.ru/ click OK. Then set the switch to the "Open start page" position.
