By the way, what happens when Yandex is set as the start page? Clicking on the browser icon will automatically open the Finder web page.

Knowing how to set this or that web page as the main one is useful. You can always make the page you are interested in the start page and not waste too much time. We decided to take Yandex as an example, since this search engine is recognized as the most used in Russia.

The algorithm for installing the main page is approximately the same for most browsers.

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

Mozilla Firefox;
Opera;
Google Chrome;
Internet Explorer;
Yandex Browser;
safari.

Yandex main page in Mozilla Firefox

To make the Yandex page the main one in Mazila Firefox, follow these steps:

As you can see, making Yandex a home page on Mazil is quite simple.

In addition, Mazila provides a unique option - to make Yandex search the default home page. Searching for information in a search engine with such settings is much easier: visited sites are displayed automatically.

How to make Yandex the default home page?

Yandex main page in Google Chrome

Google Chrome is a great browser that is rapidly gaining popularity among Web users. It features a simple and pleasant interface, understandable even to a child.

Setting the start page on Google Chrome will be slightly different from the algorithms already considered. This is due to the fact that this browser is young and new developments are used for it.

However, there is nothing complicated if you know a specific algorithm:

You can also make "Yandex mail" the main page in Google. When you open a browser, a page with Yandex Mail will open. Many Runet users have multiple email accounts. For example, one box is for work correspondence, and the other is for communicating with friends.

Another handy addition to Google Chrome is visual bookmarks. They help you go to the pages you are interested in with 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.

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

Consider how to add the virtual bookmark 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 updated by developers all the time.

The Internet Explorer browser is distinguished by a wide variety of versions installed on laptops or PCs with Windows.
We will look at how to make Yandex the main page for new versions of Internet Explorer - 10 and 11. The algorithm for setting the main page for earlier versions of the browser is similar to the instructions we have given.

Yandex main page in Yandex browser

The Yandex browser interface is similar to the Chrome interface, since both were made on the same engine.

However, there are differences, so the installation of the main page in Yandex will be slightly different - the Russian company has made its own changes:

The browser of the Russian company provides the ability to select several start pages. Your most visited websites will automatically be added.

Similar to Google Chrome virtual bookmarks, this browser supports a panel of tiles 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 - the Yandex family. You can safely allow your children to access the computer - unnecessary information and suspicious sites are strictly filtered.

It is difficult to say which browser is better: Google Chrome or Yandex browser. Both are quite convenient and easy to use.

Safari is a young browser designed for Apple products.
All advanced users of iPads, iPhones and MacBooks know about the simplicity of the Apple browser.

Setting a homepage in Safari is very simple:

If you are unable to set the main page of the browser through the settings, then there are other ways:

download the program "http://home.yandex.ru/";

if all these methods do not work, then contact the support service of your operating system: specifically describe what error the program produces, feel free to add explanatory screenshots.

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to make a Yandex. Then, every time you start the browser, the main page of the yandex site will automatically open.

The extension is a free program that can be downloaded and added to the browser. It will automatically change the start page and keep it the default. Now I will show how to install such an extension:

Go to home.yandex.ru
Click on the "Install" button
In the window, click on "Install extension"

This button may also have a different name: Allow, Add, or Execute.

After a minute, the extension will install and an icon with the letter I will appear at the top of the browser.

Close the browser and open it again. Now, at startup, the Yandex search engine will immediately appear.

Perhaps the first time a warning window pops up. In this case, click on "Save Changes".

Method 2: Manually Setting the Home Page

In any program for the Internet, you can set up a site that will always open first. Now I will show you how to do it in different browsers on a computer (laptop).

Google Chrome

Click on the button with three dots in the upper corner of the program and select "Settings" from the list.

A new tab will open with a "Launching Chrome" part at the bottom. Click on Defined Pages and select Add Page.

A small window will appear in which type yandex.ru and click "Add".

Yandex

Click on the button with three horizontal lines at the very top of the browser on the right side. Select "Settings" from the list.

A new tab with settings will open.

Go down a little lower, to where it says "Open at startup." And there click on "Previously opened tabs", and then check the box "Open yandex.ru if there are no tabs."

That's all! Now the Yandex search engine will constantly open when you start the browser.

Opera

Click on the "Menu" button in the upper left corner of the program. Select "Settings" from the list.

A new tab will open with the "On Startup" part at the top. We click on "Open a specific page or several pages", then on the link "Set pages".

In the window that appears, type the address yandex.ru and click OK.

Immediately after that, the Yandex Internet portal will become the home page in Opera. To check this, close the browser and open it again.

Mozilla Firefox

We click on the button with three horizontal lines in the upper right corner of the browser. Select "Settings" from the list.

A new tab will open. In the "At startup" section, click on "Show home page". Then in the part "Home page yandex.ru

That's all! Close the browser and open it again.

Click the gear button in the upper right corner of the program. Select "Internet Options" from the list.

A small window will open. It will show the site that is set as the home page at the moment. To change it, delete this address, type yandex.ru instead. A little lower, click on the item “Start from the home page” and click OK at the bottom.

The window will disappear. Now close Internet Explorer and open it again.

How to make Yandex the default search

Often in browsers, Google or Mail.ru is installed as the main search engine. But it can be easily changed to Yandex. Then, when you enter a query in the top line of the program, the results of the yandex search engine will be displayed.

The easiest way is to download and install the official application.

Or you can manually change the default search:

IN Chrome, Yandex Browser or Mozile you need to click on the button with three horizontal lines, click on the "Settings" item and in the "Search" section select the desired site from the list.

In Opera, press the "Menu" button and select "Settings". Then go to the "Browser" section and in the "Search" section, select the one you need from the list.

Today we will partially consider the Yandex search engine.

Its main page is the face of the entire system and literally a portal to the wonderful world of a search engine that occupies a leading position in Runet.

There is no point in talking about the reasons for leadership now, because the topic of our article is somewhat different, but, if in a couple of words, then Yandex:

Helps the user
Friendly even for beginners
Easy to use
Uses a unique ranking system
It has its own way of development and tries to bring something new.

The system was launched back in the distant ninety-seventh year during a presentation at the Softool exhibition.

And already at that time, Yandex coped with the morphology of the Russian language without any problems, looking for the information the user needed, taking into account the distance.

It also had its own algorithm for the relevance of a particular page of each site that was indexed.

First acquaintance with the main page

In order to get to the main page of Yandex, it is enough to enter www Yandex or www Yandex ru or ru in the search bar of the browser.

Well, if you are generally too lazy or you are full of impatience to enjoy a hitherto unseen spectacle - just write "Yandex" and click on the first link that appears in the search.

So, we are on the main page. It must be said that since its inception, this search engine has changed the main page very often.

And all because the developers carefully monitor the current trends and desires of users.

Based on all this, as a constructor, a page is assembled that maximally corresponds to what we used to call the word “convenience” or “comfort”.

When you get to the page for the first time, the first thing you do is turn to the very top, where a bar pops up offering to download an adapted browser Yandex.Browser, equipped with special protection technology.

Advice! Despite the fact that Yandex.Browser is well designed and "sharpened" for all the desires of a simple user, someone will not want to download it, and the top bar will distract from important information. In this case, you can pay attention to the upper right corner of the page, where there is a "Close" button, made in the form of a cross. Click on it, and you will no longer see an annoying bar suggesting you to perform an action you do not need.

Of course, after a while it may appear again, but you will already know exactly what to do with it.

Well, or she will convince you and you still decide to download Yandex.Browser, at least for fun.

At the end of the review, by the way, we will provide you with a video with detailed settings for this browser.

Make Yandex the main page in the browser

You may have a question: “How can I make sure that the Yandex home page is always in my browser and I don’t have to constantly look for it?”.

You can do it absolutely free!

Caring developers have taken care of this, so if you look at the very top left corner of the page, you can find the "Make Home" link.

Click, you will be prompted to install a special extension and you're done - the start page!

Advice! Pay attention to the picture above. The first arrow (on the left) indicates the main link, which allows you to make Yandex the start page of any browser. However, if you use the Google Chrome browser, you may see a handy ad (arrow on the left) that will help you install a special extension that will make Yandex the main search engine in your browser as quickly as possible. After that, every time you want to surf the Internet, your favorite Yandex main page will automatically load.

Specify your location if Yandex has not determined

After a little manipulation of the browser, we return to the page and see that the city in which you are currently located is indicated in the same upper left corner.

The system automatically determines it and gives you information that is most relevant to the place where you are now.

But it may also happen that Yandex makes a mistake and gives you the wrong city.

So, if you are still interested in the Yandex search engine, we will continue. We are transferred to the upper right corner of the page and we see several links there.

They allow:

on which the page will be

by customizing it

Start mailif you don't have one (there is a button "")

Advice! Registration in Yandex is fast and convenient. We advise you to use it, because it will allow you to use the additional features of the system, as well as save all the changes that you have made in the settings.

News in Yandex

Having dealt with the top of the page, we move closer to the middle. Before your eyes, as you will notice, a column will appear " News».

Initially, news that is relevant to the country in which you are located is shown there.

If your country is Russia, all the news that happened today will be shown. If in Ukraine, the relevant content will be shown.

However, if you are more interested in news related to the area in which you live, just click on the link next to the "News" link, which is named after your area.

In our case, this is the "Dnepropetrovsk region".

And to the right of the news, advertising banners from Yandex are constantly being broadcast, which either help in some small things, or talk about some new products of the company and its partners.

More detailed news

Yandex search bar

In the center of the main page of Yandex is the main thing - the logo of the search engine and the search line in which users enter their queries.

And the truth is, no matter what you enter in the search bar, you will definitely have dozens, if not hundreds of options for sites where you will definitely find what you are looking for.

On the left is a map of the city, train schedules and a TV program that allows you to find out what movies you can watch right now and whether you should even be distracted by TV.

At the very bottom of the page there is practically nothing useful for a simple user, however, experienced users will find the links indicated there important and necessary.

Among them is a link to Yandex.Direct (by the way, it is this system that brings the lion's share of profit to the search engine), a link to the metric and to the page with ordering advertising.

And that's just on the left side.

On the right side, you can find a button in the form of a question mark, which will take you to a page with a FAQ on the system and its services.

Conclusion

This is how the main page of the Yandex search engine appears before us.

We hope that our brief review will allow you to at least get to know it a little, get used to working with search and other "goodies" that this page offers.

Use Yandex and always be up to date!

Promised at the beginning of the video with Yandex.Browser settings:

Yandex browser settings

I will show you how to set up Yandex browser and show its features and functions. I especially like the ability to translate words in the browser.

Modern browsers can be used and configured as you see fit.

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

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

How to solve this issue and get out of an incomprehensible situation will help this article, which clearly describes the next steps.

The Yandex search engine does not support a feature that allows you to customize and install the start page on your computer. It should be noted that this browser only displays the scoreboard from the visual bookmark 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 Yandex browser in a new tab and delete unnecessary bookmarks. Basically, users do not use all system programs. Therefore, you need to hover over the tab with the mouse and click on the cross.

After that, you can use one or several web portals at once. Because in the future, the page will display the websites you saved. 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 in the search engine of any browser, for example, in Google. After that, you need to click on the "Finish" button.

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

To customize the start page of other browsers, you need to follow completely different steps. These issues are discussed in another article.

How to set up a background in minutes

Sometimes users get bored with old web portals and backgrounds, respectively, they tend 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 pretty 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 updates its functions quite often and offers innovative innovations. Millions of users often follow the news and try to keep abreast of 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 need to launch the browser and click on the button, which is located in the right side of the upper corner. You will see a list where you need to select the "Settings" item. After that, a line with the name "appearance settings" will open on the screen.

By clicking "turn off the new interface", you can fix the problem. As soon as the process is completed, you will have the opportunity to set the background. To do this, to choose the images you like most, you can use the Google and Chrome stores. There are a huge number of topics here.

Home page settings

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

Opera,
Safari,
Chromium,
mozilla,

By clicking on the sign "Internet Options" and "General", 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 option "View advanced options".

This function is in the options. Then, you will have to enable the "Display home button button" function. When specifying the official Yandex website, you must confirm with the "Save" option. This manual is useful for those users who use Internet Explorer.

The start page is an important element of the browser. The default page is not always suitable for the user, since each person has a search engine that he is used to using. In this article, you will learn how to make Yandex a start page automatically for free and how to do this procedure manually.

We do it manually

Consider how to independently configure the Yandex start page in the most common browsers. Please note that in further instructions, where it is indicated to enter the address of the site or Yandex, enter "https://www.yandex.ru".

Automatic way

Now we will look at how to automatically make Yandex the start page. In some browsers, when you enter the Yandex website, a question appears at the top “Make Yandex the starting and main search?” where to choose "Yes". If the question is not highlighted, then there is an item on the top left "Make a homepage". After clicking on it, a special extension will be installed.

What to do if Webalta and the like open instead of Yandex

Webalta is a search engine that takes the place of the start page without asking in some browsers. The usual way of changing the start page in the settings cannot solve this problem. For many users, Webalta is a kind of virus that cannot be eliminated. To remove it, you need to completely clean the computer from all data associated with this system.

Removal algorithm:

Enter in start search Webalta and delete all found files.
Type in the same search "Run" and open the command interpreter.
Type in the search field "regedit". This will take you to the registry of your computer.

Do a word search Webalta through the menu of the opened registry. To do this, select "Edit→Find".

Delete all found entries.

After completing the described steps, the program should disappear from your computer. To be sure, you can check the start pages in the browser settings.

Conclusion

Yandex is one of the most famous search engines in Russia. If you have always used this particular service, but your browser is set to a different system, there is no reason to change your habits. Setting up the start page in any browser can be done both automatically and manually. This will not require you to spend a lot of time and effort.
