How to switch to the old design in contact. How to return the old version of VK on a computer? Very simple! Why the new version turned on by itself and how to go back
If you need help installing the old VKontakte design, then contact VKontakte https://vk.!
Attention!
Since the design was updated by 100% of users, now only one way remains from the working ways to regain the old VKontakte design, this Method number 5, so just use it.
As soon as there are more ways to help get the old VK back, I will immediately update the article. In the meantime, be content with what you have, enjoy reading the article!
A beta test of the new VKontakte design has already begun a long time ago, I even wrote several reviews on, highlighted all the pros and cons of the new style social network. But today, VKontakte began to massively change the design of all users, and not just those who subscribed to the VKontakte blog on new style.
I learned this quite by accident, but it happened like this, all beta testers, including me, had a button in the new design " Return to the old VKontakte design“, by clicking on which you could go to the old design. In the old design, there was a button that could bring you back to the new style and set it as the main one. This afternoon, for some reason, I don't remember what, I decided to switch to the old design, pressed the button and I was transferred to the new design style, and the button disappeared.
That's how I found out that VKontakte changed the old design to a new one already 10% of users, at the time of writing the article, it probably already became more.
By the way, at the time of editing the article, the design was already included by all 100% of users, that is, and already in any way, it remains only to use these scripts and browser extensions!
The change in design to a new one did not appeal to many users, as I said that a change in design is quite important step for the VKontakte guide, many users cannot work in the new design, relying on what they are already accustomed to the old one, and new design similar to the failed design of classmates and they want to return the old one. I don't know what they don't like, as for me, the new design is more comfortable and more modern.
A petition has even appeared on the Internet, which collects the signatures of those who want VKontakte to add the opportunity user choice between old and new designs. You can sign the petition here: Social network VKontakte. Possibility to use the old design.
The petition was sent to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and already has 11,660 signatures out of 15,000 needed to send this letter, I think it will soon exceed these 15k signatures and the VKontakte administration will consider introducing a design choice for a social network, but you can only switch to the old vkontakte design using the method that I will describe below, the method is fully working and is not fake.
Once approved, the petition will be delivered to the Mail Group administration.
Personally, I did not sign this petition, because I like the new design that was installed on VKontakte and fully satisfies my needs, like the design of a popular social network.

Why did I start the article with the fifth method? It's simple, all the methods listed below stopped working after today's update, so use this particular method, since it's on this moment is the only way bring back the old VKontakte style!
So, in order to return the old VKontakte design in this way, we need the following:

How to switch to the old VKontakte design (Method number 1)
Under this method there are 2, more effective ways, read below!
Immediately after the new VKontakte design appeared, a site appeared that posted a link with which you can switch to the old VKontakte design, despite the fact that VKontakte disabled this function.
In order to return, or rather use the old VKontakte design, just follow the link that I wrote below.
<—— Переходим на старый дизайн вк по ней!
Attention!
To switch to the old design, a new link is available, after clicking on which you will not have a new design at all, even if you refresh the page with the new design open. I found this link purely by accident, I don’t know who the author is, but the idea is good. A notification appeared on the open page that you were going to update the page in VK, but even after doing this, the old design will remain in place, it will not go anywhere.
There is such a wonderful site called userstyles.org, which has a lot of different styles for VKontakte, and so, I rummaged there today and found a redesign of the VKontakte design for the old VK. It looks like this.
As you can see, it reminds us of both the old design and the new one, two in one. But this version is still raw and contains many errors, but if you are so eager to get rid of the innovation of the VKontakte developers, then feel free to turn on this style, and you can do it like this.
Attention, the script is still under development, so it will be updated and improved!
The new design of VK does not turn on, what should I do?
Now, in fact, this question is not relevant, since the new design is connected to 100% of the users of the VKontakte social network, good luck in using it!
If you didn’t sign up back in April and didn’t start receiving the design then, now, when the design is starting to be connected to everyone in a row, you still haven’t been included, why? It's simple, the VKontakte guide includes a new VK design gradually, a few percent a day. Since immediately enabling the new VKontakte design for such a large number of users is simply unrealistic without any system failures. After all, more than 350 million users are registered on VKontakte, and this is not a small number. For clarity, I will lay out statistics on VKontakte users for you.
And if you are worried that you might not be included, something is wrong with your page that the design is not included, I will reassure you, this is all temporary. Soon your time will come to become a user of the new wall design and, in general, the entire VKontakte site. You just have to wait for the inevitable, because the design change can no longer be stopped, even through .
Although many on the Internet write that it is now impossible to return to the old VKontakte design, you now know that this is not so. And many fumbling users will soon find ways to bypass the new design and return to the old one without any complex manipulations.
And yes, I hope that the VKontakte administration will still consider the petition about choosing designs between the new and the old and still introduce such a function. Since the new design is really so important to some users. But unfortunately not for me. 🙂
I will be happy to comment on this article.
For the first time in the last 10 years, the largest social network in the CIS, Vkontakte, decided to update its design. But it was not there. Thousands of users did not like the innovations + even Durov criticized him. In general, people began to look for ways to return the old design of Vkontakte.
As they say, "the world is not without good people." If you are one of those who really did not like the new look of Vkontakte, then this information will be useful to you.
In general, the developer under the nickname Kesantielu Dasefern, proposed a set of styles that will help bring back almost the same design as before.
How to return the old Vkontakte design forever

Of course, these styles are not without flaws, but the developer promises to make improvements.

How to return the old Vkontakte design on a computer quickly, in 5 seconds? In May, Vkontakte changed its design and address from vk.com to m.vk.com, which was an unpleasant surprise for many VK users.
Hi all!
Today I hung out on Vkontakte, as a result of communication, it became clear on what topics you can write articles.
Today 2 had to answer this question, asked in different word forms, but this did not change the meaning).
For example, there was another question.
How to switch to the old version of Vkontakte?
About everything in order.
On August 17, 2016, the social network Vkontakte changed the site address from vk.com to m.vk.com, and also removed the old design, which for many was, to put it mildly, not a very pleasant surprise.
To be more precise, VK began to change the old design to a new one not immediately for everyone, but gradually.
For example, the design of my Vkontakte page was updated for the first time just a couple of weeks ago.
I’m sitting at my laptop, as always, I have a bunch of open tabs, you can chat there, look here, read here ... in general, I click on the tab of my Vkontakte page, a new version flies out ... the first thought then was - what is it then the mobile version, I look at the address, m.vk.com ... the second thought is a phishing site. In general, I poked, I poked, my problem was that I didn’t have 1 account in contact, well, they like contact to freeze pages, there’s nothing to do with it, people openly spread advertisements about cheating and selling VK accounts on the open walls of groups, and this okay, here you throw a thematic link and they block you ... In general, the meaning is that the passwords from the accounts are stored in the browser's memory, and along the way, when I change the new design to the old one, VKontakte security works, I'm thrown out of the site and I can't come in).
Summing up a point under everything that has been said.
I don't like the new contact version.
Yes, hell knows, it's a matter of habit or design, but I don't want this design, I like the old VK on the computer.
Many people say that the new design is ugly similar to the design of Facebook.
Okay, I won’t load you with my weekdays), let’s get down to business.

The social network "VKontakte" is one of the most popular. To date, millions of users from around the world daily visit this Internet resource. We are talking not only about residents of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, but also about representatives of the United States of America, Great Britain, France and other countries.
More recently, the VKontakte social network has changed its design. Today, many are interested in how to return the old version of VK and whether it can be done. Now we will try to answer this question, and also tell you in detail about how you can change the new version of the social network to the old one, which everyone is already used to. Go!
Why was the version updated?
A new version of the popular social network VKontakte was introduced only in April 2016. The previous version is outdated, because it has existed for a long period of time. It should be noted that the first time, when representatives of the social. networks conducted tests of the new design, each user had the opportunity to independently connect a new version, after which, if he did not like it or was inconvenient, he had the opportunity to return the old one.
Later, specialists launched a new version for everyone and removed the ability to return to the old one. It was then that people began to ask questions about how to return the old version of VK after the update.
New version of VKontakte
On June 9 last 2016, approximately 10% of VK users were connected to the new version of the social network. This was done forcibly, since the update happened on its own, and it was not possible for them to return the outdated version of the site. However, everything did not end there, because on August 17, 2016, the VKontakte social network completely updated its design for all users. At the same time, the opportunity to return to the old version disappeared for each registered person in the social. networks.
After that, people have been trying for a long period of time to find out if it is possible to return the old version of VK. Also, if the answer is yes, then they want to know how it can be done. As representatives of the social network VKontakte say, there will never be a return to the old version of the site!
Partial return
It is quite problematic to completely return the old version of VKontakte, but some changes can still be made. As you know, the update completely changed the look of the dialogs. In order for the design of messages to be the way it was a few years ago, you need to go to the "Messages" section. Further down the right you will find a gear on which you need to hover over the mouse and select "Go to classic interface".
By following the previous steps, you can return the classic dialog box, but everything else will remain unchanged, since it is impossible to return the previous version of the VK social network without any additional actions and special applications!
"We do not like!"
Now there are a lot of people who are not satisfied with the new version of the social network. Many are trying to find out an exhaustive amount of information on how to return the old version of VK to a computer, but it is simply impossible to do this without the help of additional programs developed by experienced specialists. People are sure that the previous version was more convenient. In addition, some are sure that the new design of VKontakte is very similar to the Odnoklassniki and Facebook networks. By the way, did you know that users even created a petition, which indicates the requirements to preserve the old version, but this did not affect anything?
At the same time, representatives of the VKontakte social network simply laughed at the users who promised to leave this network if the previous version of the site was not returned. The fact is that a month after the promises were made, people continued to be online. It is quite logical that they are used to the new version, because for many it really seems more convenient, modern and simple.
However, if you still can’t get used to the new version of the social network and are trying to find out how to return the old version of VK to your computer, then in this case you can use additional applications, one of which we will talk about right now in more detail.
style
This online program is a special software that can help you return the old design to the VKontakte social network. We will provide information on how to return the old version of VK to Windows, focusing on the Chrome browser.
So, first you need to launch the browser and select the ellipsis of the vertical position at the top right. After that, click on more tools and select "Extensions". Next, you should scroll down and click on the "More extensions" button.
You are now in the Google Chrome Web Store. In the store search box, enter the name of the program, that is, Stylish. The next step is to select the Stylish program from the drop-down list and click on the "Install" button.
After installation, you need to click on the userstyles.org link, which will be called "Programs". In the search above, you must enter the following data: "Old VK design." Then press Enter and you will see a special theme. Go to the appropriate section and click on the "Install" button.
The next step, you can enter VKontakte, but there will be no new version of the social network, because you just managed to install the old version of VK.
Try whether you are comfortable using the outdated version, because in a year you could get used to the new version of the site, which many people find much more convenient, pleasant and easier.
