How to change the home page in Google Chrome, Mozilla and Opera. How to change the home page to "Yandex"

Today we will review the most popular browsers and tell you how to change the home page to "Yandex". If you do not want to use a search engine, do not worry. You can use our instructions if you want to see any other resource (your personal site, weather page, etc.) as the start page.

How to configure this setting in Internet Explorer 6

This browser is still, according to statistics, is worth 30% of Internet users. Consider an algorithm by which you can make the necessary settings for us:

1. Enter the address of the desired search engine into the browser string (we have this "Yandex") and go to the mentioned site.
2. In the menu, click on the "Tools" tab, select "Internet Options" in the drop-down list.
3. Then go to the "General" tab, and in the window with the word "Home" press the "With current" button (since you have already opened the search engine's main page). Wait until the address appears in the graph, then at the end of the page, save the result by clicking on "Apply" and then "Ok".

After that, when you start the browser, you will by default load the main search page of "Yandex".

Internet Explorer (version 7, 8)

The settings of the start page of these versions are absolutely identical, therefore the previous instruction will be suitable for solving the problem. The difference will consist only in the location of the menu. In IE 7 and 8, it is not located at the top, but moved to the right window. Items remain the same.

Mozilla Firefox

To configure the start page in this browser, perform the following steps in turn:

1. In the address line, combined, as a rule, with the search string, you need to drive the address of the selected site and go to the page that you would like to see at startup.
2. Select "Tools" in the window menu. In the drop-down list, open the "Settings".
3. In the window that opens (Settings-Basic), find the "Start" item and configure it as follows: in the line "When starting Firefox", specify the option "Show home page", and in the line below specify the link. It can, for example, be copied from a browser line, and also click on "Use the current page". But remember that the last option is possible only if you are now on that page.

In this browser, the role of the search engine start page can be played by a bookmark. Pre-record your chosen search engine (or any other resource) there, and then specify it when setting up the home page.

The work is finished, now when you start Mozilla Firefox you will open the specified site or its separate page. Next, we'll show you how to change the home page in Google Chrome.

Google Chrome

2. Click on the "Settings" icon in the upper right corner of the window. This menu item usually looks like a wrench. In the drop-down list, select "Options" and a separate window with three tabs opens before us. Among them, to configure the start page, we need only the first one, called "Basic".
3. In the same place we see the inscription "Home page", in the box "Open this page" we enter manually or paste the copied address of the site (photo, search engine, etc.) and move the slider (put a green dot) in this line. Saving settings in Google Chrome will happen immediately after you click the "Close" button at the bottom of the window.
