Setting Yandex as your home page allows you to automatically open the popular Russian search engine on the first page when you open a browser if you have an Internet connection. Many find it convenient. That is why the request is so popular how to make Yandex the start page? We have already considered on the pages of our site how to do this for, and now we will do it for Yandex.

Setting up the start page in Mozilla Firefox. We launch Firefox (we use the latest version 13.0.1 at the time of this writing) and write yandex.ru in the address bar and press Enter so that we are on the Yandex home page. Why do this you will understand further. In the upper left corner of the browser, press the orange Firefox button and select the "Settings" menu item in the left column. In the settings window that opens, go to the “General” tab if we are currently in another tab. In this tab, we check that the line "When Firefox starts:" is "Show home page" and click the "Use current page" button, then click "OK". Thus, we made Yandex the starting page. You can check this by closing and reopening your browser. Yandex should load as the main page.


Setting up the start page in Google Chrome.
As a test subject, we used Google Chrome 20.0.1132.47 to show you how to make Yandex the start page in this browser. The interface is a little unusual compared to other browsers. We also open the Yandex home page by typing yandex.ru into the address bar of the browser and pressing Enter. All other pages except Yandex on other tabs must be closed. Next, click on the wrench image in the upper right part of the browser and select the "Settings" menu item. In the window that opens, in the left column, select the "Settings" section, if you are not currently in them. In the settings, we work with the block "Initial group". Click on the "Add" link. A window opens that lists the start pages that run when the browser opens. By clicking on the "Use current pages" button, we will set Yandex as the start page in chrome. Click "OK" and close and reopen chrome to check if the settings are correct.



Setting the start page in Opera.
For the demonstration, we used browser version 12.0. We follow the same algorithm that we used to install Yandex as the start page in Firefox. In the address bar of the browser, we type yandex.ru and press Enter to open the Yandex start page in front of us. Next, press the Opera button in the upper left corner, select "Settings" in the menu that appears, and in the next pop-up submenu "General Settings". You can also call General settings by pressing the keyboard shortcut Ctrl and F12. In the window that appears, select the "General" tab, if you did not immediately get into it. In this tab, in the "At startup" window, set the value "Start from the home page" and set it in the "Home" window by clicking on the "Current page" button. We press "Ok. The settings are saved, Yandex is now set as the main page.


Setting the start page in Internet Explorer 9.
We act by analogy with Firefox and Opera browsers. Open the Yandex start page by typing yandex.ru in the address bar and pressing Enter. Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the browser. In the menu that appears, select "Internet Options". Go to the "General" tab, if initially we did not get to it. In the "Home Page" group, click the "Current" button, then at the bottom of the window, click "Apply" and "OK". Now, when opening Internet Explorer, we get to Yandex by default.


Setting the start page in Safari.
Safari is not as popular with Windows users as the previous four browsers we reviewed, however, it is among the top five most popular browsers. It is especially popular among fans of computers from Apple. Therefore, we decided to consider how to make Yandex a start page for it as well. The latest at the time of this writing was version 5.1.7. It was used by us in the examples. We do everything according to the scheme already familiar to us. Launch Safari and open the Yandex home page in it. Let's go to the settings. To do this, on computers running the Windows operating system, click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the browser and select the "Settings ..." menu item. As you can see from the menu, the same can be done by pressing the keyboard shortcut Ctrl (Control) and "," (comma).


On computers running the Mac OS X operating system, click on the general menu bar at the top of the screen with the browser active, the Safari section and the "Settings" in it, or call the settings with the Cmd (command) and "," (comma) key combination.


Further settings are similar for Windows and Mac OS X. In the settings window, go to the “General” tab, where we check that “Home page” is in the line “Open in new windows:”. After that, a little lower under the line "Home page" press the button "Current page". Unlike other browsers, you do not need to click either “OK” or “Apply” here. Just close the window and save the settings. Apple's journey and the pursuit of simplicity and difference in action.


Of course, there are other ways to make Yandex a home page. For example, you can not initially open the Yandex home page and not click the "Current Page" button, but simply enter the correct address in the corresponding line with your hands. But these are all special cases that you will definitely deal with on your own after reading this article.

To get started, press the ALT button on your keyboard. In this case, under the address bar of the Internet Explorer browser, the standard menu "File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, Help" will appear. Open the Tools menu and launch Internet Options.

Almost all Internet browsers have the ability to make your favorite site the start page, except ... except for the Yandex browser.

Yes, indeed, in a modern browser from the Yandex search engine, there is no function for setting the start or home page. However, as always, I tried to deal with this problem and found a way out of the situation.

And I found it. The fact is that it displays on each new tab a scoreboard of visual bookmarks, which consist of frequently visited sites. We just have to configure the browser in such a way that at startup this scoreboard is launched, which will display only one or a few favorite sites.

And so, let's go...

Open a new tab and delete all unnecessary bookmarks (visual, I mean). To delete a bookmark, just hover over it with the mouse and click on the cross:

We leave only a few favorite sites or one. If the site you want to see is not on the start page, you can add it there. To do this, simply click on the "Add" button of the same name. We look at the screenshot:

We enter the site address, I enter the Google search engine, and click on the "Finish" button:

Here's what I got now:

Now we just have to make sure that this page is launched at the start.

Click on the menu button in the upper right corner and select "Settings" from the drop-down list:

We open the settings in a separate tab. We find at the very beginning of this page the phrase "Open at startup" and set the switch to the "New Tab" position.
