How to set Yandex as the browser start page. How to make Yandex the start page in Internet Explorer Set the Yandex home page in Yandex

21.09.2023

For many people, working with the browser begins with the home page. Correct configuration will provide increased comfort and quick access to the necessary information. This article will talk about how to change the start page in Yandex Browser.

Since Yandex.Browser is based on the Chromium engine, its interface is as similar as possible to Google Chrome. And despite some changes made by Yandex developers, browser management is identical.

To change your browser's home page, open the menu Settings. To do this, click on the button with three horizontal stripes, which is located at the top right, and select the menu item Settings.

In the menu that opens you need to find the section Where to start?

The browser offers, let's say, 2.5 settings to choose from. First option - Open quick access page. By choosing this method, this window will appear when you launch the browser:

These are the default windows; as you continue to use the browser, they will change depending on the user's preferences. Unnecessary windows will be removed, and they will be replaced by tabs with frequently used sites. They can also be controlled by the user himself: move them in all directions, remove unnecessary windows, add and pin interesting pages.

Second option - Restore tabs opened last time. That is, restoring the last session. Convenient for users who constantly keep the same sites open (for example, news or social networks).

And in addition to this point there is a setting - Open www.yandex.ru if there are no tabs. That is, if all tabs were closed before shutting down the browser, then the next time you start the program, the start page will be the Yandex search service.

Unfortunately, the browser does not implement the ability to set the desired site as the starting site. This was probably done to ensure that people used exclusively Yandex services. However, the “Tableboard” function provides greater opportunities, with the help of which you can get to your favorite site with one click.

If you often use services from the most famous Russian search engine, it makes sense to make Yandex your starting page automatically now, so as not to waste time opening it in the future. Moreover, the adjustment is carried out literally in a minute in any of the modern popular browsers - through standard mechanisms for changing application settings or using a resource specially created for this, where the application or add-on is responsible for setting the settings.

Make Yandex the start page through an automatic service

Especially for those who do not want to delve into the settings, but at the same time want to quickly get results, Yandex has developed a separate service. It programmatically detects which browser is being used and offers the appropriate option.

For example, in Chrome you can install Yandex automatically on the start page like this:

Similar to how this is done in Chrome, you can make the Yandex start page in the Firefox browser:

Please note that the functionality of the icons is very simple - just open a new tab with your preferred site. Don't expect miracles from them.

In the Internet Explorer browser that is still in use, making Yandex the start page in the same way as in its competitors will not work with this service - you will have to install the program it offers:

If you look at the registered address, you will notice that the search engine collects usage statistics.

But Opera was “unlucky”: when opening the same https://home.yandex.ru/ Only instructions for manual registration are displayed (detailed description below in this article).

Yandex browser

By default, you won’t need to do anything: if there were no open tabs, the browser will launch its native search engine. If for some reason it doesn’t work for you, open the settings menu.

Google Chrome

The easiest way to make Yandex the start page in Google Chrome every time you turn it on is to open the portal and click on the corresponding link at the very top (Google Chrome usually shows it).

If it is not there, then everything can be done manually:

Life hack: If you have already opened the portal, you can not rewrite/copy the resource URL, but simply click on the link to use open tabs. The settings tab itself is not added to the start list.

Another way to get to Yandex is to make the search engine not the start page, but the place where the button with the house is redirected. To do this, go to the settings in the appearance and activate the corresponding control element. Then switch the selection to enter URL and enter the search engine address there (by the way, you can also use the simplified version of ya.ru).

After that, to go to it, you just need to click on the icon with the image of a house that appears on the toolbar.

Mozilla Firefox

As soon as you open a search portal in Firefox, Yandex itself will ask you to become the start page. You can accept the offer.

But it’s just as easy to make Yandex the start page in Mazil manually as in Chrome - it’s no coincidence that Mozilla Firefox is quite successfully opposed to the leader in the browser market. Proceed like this:

Hint: If the portal is already open, then with one click of the button about using the current tab (directly below the input field) it will be registered in the settings.

You can also debug the action of the “Home” icon right in the interface so that it leads to Yandex. To do this, open the portal, then “pick” the tab with the mouse and drag it onto the button.

In the dialog box that appears, agree to change the setting.

Opera

In Opera, you can make Yandex the start page either through the menu or using hotkeys. If you want to use the first option, click on the branded icon at the top left and select “Settings”. If the second one, press Alt and P.

Scroll down to define startup actions. Select the last option, then click on add address.

Enter the desired Yandex site.

Or click on use already open tabs if you have already switched to the portal.

Internet Explorer

Despite the fact that this browser often receives unflattering reviews from users, it is easy to configure. In IE, launch options are accessed through properties, which are hidden under the gear.

On the general settings tab, enter the desired URL.

You can also note that you need to start by opening your home address, then after turning on the browser will not return to the previous session.

Microsoft Edge

The Yandex start page in the Microsoft Edge browser is also configured through the parameters (only not behind the gear, but behind the three dots). To correctly display the new window, you need to specify a specific URL and save it by clicking on the floppy disk icon.

Setting up the Yandex start page on Android

On an Android phone, the procedure for making Yandex the start page depends on the browser used. If you use software from Yandex, then the default settings are sufficient.

In mobile Chrome, you need to open the settings and specify the appropriate search engine.

In mobile Opera, the adjustment is performed in a similar way.

But for Xiaomi fans who decide to use the included Mi Browser and not switch to common analogues, it will be a little more difficult:

If you have long wanted to make it easier and faster to find the Yandex home page and make it the start page of your browser, then this article is for you! What makes working with a search engine easier if it is set as the “start page”?

When you open your browser, the search agent page automatically opens, saving you time and effort. Knowing how to set a web page as your home page is very useful.

After all, you can not waste extra time and immediately open the page of interest in your browser. Carrying out this setup is not at all difficult, but some novice Internet users may not know how this is done.

Two main competitors - Yandex and Google

Now we can distinguish 2 main search services - Yandex and Google . Among the Russian-speaking population, naturally, the search engine Yandex is in the lead and there are many reasons for this leadership. Yandex differs from its competitor in a number of advantages:

High information content. From the start page you can immediately access all search engine services: news, posters, weather, mail, etc. You can even customize it as you wish thanks to additional widgets and modules.
High quality of information output.
Pleasant appearance, which can also be customized to your preferences thanks to Yandex themes, which are constantly updated.

The easiest way to set up the Yandex.ru start page is use this special application, which Yandex itself offers. You can install this application using the link http://home.yandex.ru/. Thanks to this application, Yandex will automatically be installed as the home page in all browsers. In this case, no additional manual settings are required. If this application does not work or you simply do not want to download an additional program, you can make the settings manually in each browser.

Manual Yandex settings in various browsers

The steps for installing the home page are almost identical for all browsers, but, nevertheless, each browser has small features of securing the start page. We will look in detail at how to make Yandex the home page for key browsers:

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

The most popular and convenient browsers according to Internet users

Yandex home page in Mozilla Firefox

The first browser we will consider is Mozilla Firefox, which is the leader among Russian users.

To set your home page, go to the settings menu in the upper right corner or simply type “about:preferences” in your browser’s address bar.

In this section, in the “Home Page” or “Home Page” line, indicate the address of the start page, namely http://www.yandex.ru/, and click the “Ok” button.

A nice feature of modern browsers is the lack of case sensitivity, that is, the browser will not care whether you write the site address in capital or small letters.

Yandex start page in Opera

As mentioned earlier, the settings in all browsers are very similar, so setting up the home page in Opera will be almost the same as in Mozilla.

To do this, open the menu in the browser and select the “Settings” section.

The latest versions of browsers are very similar, and accordingly, the settings of many parameters are also the same, including the home page settings

Then click the “Set pages” button and in the window that appears, in the “Add new page” line, indicate the address http://www.yandex.ru/.

You can add several pages to the list at once, so that when you start the browser, several tabs will open.

If at the time of installing the start page you have a Yandex page open in your browser, then you don’t have to enter the address manually, but just click the “Use current pages” button and the Yandex address will be displayed automatically.

After all the steps, click the “Ok” button.

Home page in Google Chrome

Setting up a quick access page in Google Chrome is as easy as in the previous options.

To do this, in the browser “Menu” (the button in the form of 3 horizontal lines in the upper left corner), select “Settings”.

In older versions of Google Chrome, the “Menu” section may be located in the right corner of the browser.

The Settings section of Google Chrome is very similar to the same section in the Opera browser. Is not it?)

A tab has opened where you need to enter the home page address, in our case this is the Yandex address. We agree with our changes and click “Ok”.

As in previous browsers, you can simplify the task and click the “Use current pages” button if the search engine page is already open in the browser.

Yandex home page in Internet Explorer

Now there are many versions of this browser that are installed on computers or laptops, so let’s consider installing the Yandex home page on the latest versions of Internet Explorer - 10 and 11. If you have an earlier version of this browser installed, the installation process will be similar to the algorithm below and it won’t be difficult for you to independently install Yandex as the start page on your browser.

Four simple steps to set up a home page for Internet Explorer:

You need to open the browser settings menu (top right);
Select the “Browser Options” tab;
In the “General” section, find the “Home Page” item and enter the address http://www.yandex.ru/ in the empty line.
In the “Startup” item, check the box next to “Start from the home page” and click “OK”.

Home page YANDEX In Yandex browser

The appearance of the Yandex browser is similar to the Google Chrome interface, however, there are some differences when setting up the home page.

Home page pinning scheme:

Open your browser settings.

The Settings section is represented by a gear icon at the top of the page

In the context menu, select the “Settings” tab.

This browser does not have the ability to pin the start page. Perhaps this was done with the goal that all users of this program use exclusively the Yandex search service.

This item says that when you reopen the browser, tabs restored from the last session will open, but it is suggested to check the sub-item “ Open www.yandex.ru if there are no tabs" That is, if you closed all tabs before closing the program, then the next time you start the browser, the Yandex page will open.

Yandex start page in Safari.

Safari is a young browser developed by Apple for its proprietary equipment. All modern iPhone and MacBook users know about this simple and convenient browser. To set up a home page in Safari you only need three simple steps:

In the upper right corner, click on the gear icon and go to the “Settings” section;
Next, select “Basic”;
In the “Home Page” window, enter the address of the Yandex search engine.

What to do if the start page is not installed on the browser?

Rarely, there are situations when even following all the instructions, you cannot set the start page through the browser settings manually. What to do in this case? There are several suggestions:

Try downloading the app http://home.yandex.ru/, which was mentioned at the very beginning of our article, and try to automatically make changes to the browser. Just remember that the start page will change in ALL installed browsers on your computer.
Clean your computer using antivirus and resume trying to set Yandex as your home page.
And finally, if all the methods do not help achieve the desired result, contact support your operating system. Describe your actions in detail, indicate any errors that occur and add screenshots of your actions to your message.

What I'm talking about? Well, let's see what happens when you access the main page http://www.yandex.ru/ from under Chroma:

It will be enough to click on the inscription “Make Yandex the start page” and you will only have to agree to, which will make the necessary changes in the browser settings.

At the Opera when you open the Yandex home page you will be offered:

It, in turn, will change the home page, and will add many other goodies, which you can read about in the article at the link above. you will be prompted to install Yandex.Panel for Opera, which is also capable of doing the work we need.

When you access http://www.yandex.ru/ in a browser Internet Explorer you will be directed to a page with extensions from Yandex, including the Elements mentioned above.
