Launch your browser. In the address bar, enter the address of the page you want to make your homepage and press Enter. At the top, under the address bar, find the "Tools" item and move to "Internet Options".
In the window that opens, you click "General" and "Current". The address bar sets the address of your page. Now apply the action and click ok.
We have reviewed the most popular browsers. In principle, following step-by-step instructions, you can easily set any page as a start page. In the same way, you can change the settings and set a different address at any time. Remember that this is not difficult.
Today, many cannot imagine life without the World Wide Web, but in order to enter there, an Internet browser is required (in common people - a browser). And often novice users do not know all the features of a particular program. In our article, you will find out the answer to the question of whether it is possible to replace a dull standard page with the one you want.
We'll look at four popular browsers, and first let's talk about "Google Chrome". To change the start page in it, go to the settings menu, to do this, click the button in the form of three horizontal bars in the upper right corner of the program window. You will see a list of functions, where you must select the "Settings" item. In it you will see the line "Open at startup", and under it - three different options. In this case, we are interested in the latter, namely, “Specified pages:”, it should be marked with an indicator in the form of a dot. Next, next to the right, click the “Add” hyperlink - and a small window should immediately open, where you should enter the address of the site, which will become the start page, and then click “OK”. In addition, the "Google Chrome" browser may also need a so-called home page. The difference between it and the start one is that it is called by pressing the "Home" button in the upper left corner, and not when you launch a web browser. To install this feature, go to the "Settings" menu and check the box next to "Show the" Home button "". An "Edit" hyperlink will appear at the bottom. Click on it, and a window will open for you, in which enter the desired address and save the changes with the "OK" button.
In the Opera browser, the principle of setting the start page is the same as in Google chrom. First you must go to the settings menu to get there - use the key combination "Ctrl + F12" or "Alt + P". You can also simply click the "Opera" button in the upper left corner of the program window and select the "Settings" item in the list that opens. Next, you will immediately see the inscription “At startup”, and under it there are three options, so you won’t have to scroll anywhere. Again, we are interested in the last option, namely "Open a specific page or several pages." On the right, click the "Set page" hyperlink and in the new window enter the desired address, click "OK".
In the Mozilla Firefox browser, setting the start page is perhaps easier than in other Internet browsers, because everything is in plain sight. First, click on the button in the form of three horizontal stripes, the same as in "Google chrom", and click on the "Settings" button, a new menu window will open. In the "Basic" tab there will be a line "Home page", enter the address of a specific site in it and click "OK". And if you are on the resource you need, to simplify the process, you can save the start page with the "Use current page" button.
If you are using the standard "Internet Explorer", then you can install the start page by following these steps. First, click the "Tools" button, which is located on the top right, and select "Internet Options" from the context menu that opens. Next, a new window will appear, in it go to the "General" tab. Here you must enter the desired site address in the "Home Page" line and click "OK". That's all.
This article is relevant for the latest versions of programs. Since all developers are gradually changing the settings menu, we strongly recommend that you update your browser to the latest version, after all, it's completely free.

If the start page cannot be changed in any way, you can proceed as follows.
When you launch the Google Chrome browser, it shows the default start page, which usually shows a Google search engine box and a list of most visited sites. A similar window is displayed when you launch the main (home) page of the browser.
But in some cases, installed programs or exposure to viruses can lead to a change in the start and main page in chrome.
If you want to return everything to its original state, or just customize the browser for yourself, use the instructions below.
Set the main (home) page in Google Chrome

4. That's it. Now you can click the "OK" button and check how the Google Chrome start page has changed at startup.
In this tutorial, I'll show you where the Google Chrome start page changes.
In the last lesson on working with the Google Chrome browser, we analyzed the express panel. You can read this lesson at this link. In this simple tutorial, I will show you how you can change the start page that will load immediately after opening the browser.

A new tab with settings will open in front of you. We are interested in the "Initial group" settings block. It is here that the page is configured, which will open immediately after the launch of Google Chrome.
The first item is the "Quick Access Page" - this is a page with standard Google Chrome bookmarks.
The item "Continue work from the same place" means that all those pages that were open at the time the program was closed will be loaded. The "Next Pages" item allows you to add one or more sites to the initial loading of Google Chrome. You can do this through the "add" link.
A new window will open in front of you, in which you can add one or more addresses that will be opened when Google Chrome starts. You can add the site address through a special field. Also, addresses can be entered through the "Use current pages" button. In this way, the addresses that are currently open in your browser are added. In order to delete a page, simply move the mouse cursor over it and click on the cross icon to the right of the address. At the end, when you have set all the addresses you need, you must click on the "OK" button.

Every day we use the browser many times to access the Internet. Depending on your settings, when you start Google Chrome, either a new tab opens, or with the tabs that were open when the browser window was last closed, or with predefined pages.
Today we will look at how to change the start page of a new tab so that it is not just a white background, but some beautiful image. It's just for you to enjoy watching.
We have previously written about how to customize the start page with several . Now let's see how this can be done natively in Chrome.
However, we will set the appearance for the new tab. This means that if your settings are set to launch the browser from the pages that were open at the time of closing, then you will see the changes only when you yourself open a new tab. In order for you to immediately see a new tab, go to the main browser menu (three vertical dots in the upper right corner) and select "Settings". Or type in the address bar chrome://settings
Background setting
You can leave everything as it is, as you wish. You will just see the changes when you open a new tab. Here you decide.
Let's continue. After we changed the browser launch settings, when we open it, we see a simple appearance: a white background, a search bar and shortcuts to the most popular pages
To change the design, click on the small gear in the lower right corner. Menu will open
From it you can upload your image as a background, or set a background image from Google.
Let's put an image from the Chrome developer and select the first background change option.
We will see a modal window with a choice of categories.
As an example, let's take a look at Earth(pictures of our planet). We click on it.
To return to the category selection, click on the arrow in the upper left corner.
And here is what we have now.
In this way, you can always customize the start page to your liking.
Customizing Shortcuts
Initially, you can have 9 labels installed on the most visited pages. But you can add one more. To do this, just click on the last button " Add Label»
In the window, enter the name and address of the site. Click Done.
We visit some sites much more often than others, and it would be very convenient to make them open automatically or faster. To do this, you can change the start or home page to your favorites. On browsers such as: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Yandex Browser and Microsoft Edge (new Internet Explorer), changing these pages is quite simple and even inexperienced users will have no problems.
The difference between the start page and the home page
First, let's clarify the concepts of what a start page and home page are:
- the start page opens automatically when the browser starts;
- home - only when you click on the corresponding icon in the toolbar.
There's nothing stopping you from making your start page and home page point to the same address.
Initially, the start page was conceived as an opportunity for accelerated access to your favorite site. But usually this gives the novice user only extra trouble when using the Internet. By default, the official website of the developer or the address of a search engine is indicated as the start page. It also happens that when the browser is launched, a “left” site opens, which is completely uninteresting to the user. This is all solved by changing the settings so that the address you need or an empty tab opens.
Some browsers use "home" and "home" instead of "start" and "home".
How to customize the start or home page: set, change or remove
For almost all browsers, these actions are approximately the same, but we will consider everything in order.
Google Chrome ("Google Chrome")
- Launch the browser and go to the settings by selecting the appropriate item in the main menu.
- To designate a home page, in the Appearance category, check the box next to Show Home button. In the submenu that appears, click "Edit".
- After the done actions, an icon with a house will appear to the left of the address bar of the browser. Through it, you can quickly get to the home page.
- Assign the desired home page by selecting "Next Page". Enter the desired address and click OK.
- To change the start page, go to the "Open on startup" category in your browser settings. Select "Specified Pages" and click "Add".
- Enter the address of the desired start page in the window that appears.
You can use open pages as start pages by selecting the appropriate item in the window for adding start pages.

Mozilla Firefox ("Mozilla" or "Firefox")
Opera ("Opera")
- Launch the browser and open the main menu by clicking on the corresponding icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Select "Settings".
- In the On startup category, select Open a specific page or multiple pages. Then click Set Pages.
- In the window that appears, sequentially add and enter the addresses of the desired pages, and then click "OK".
The "Home Page" function is not provided in the Opera browser. The developers felt that the express panel would be enough.
Yandex browser
- Open the main menu by clicking on the icon in the upper right corner of the browser window, then select "Settings".
- To change the start page, select Favorite Sites Scoreboard in the Open On Startup category.
- Now, when you start the browser, the so-called "Zen" window with your set of sites will be displayed.
In Yandex Browser, there is no choice of the start page in the usual sense. The home page invariably remains the address of the Yandex search engine. You can go to it by clicking on the icon with the letter "I" to the left of the address bar.
Microsoft Edge ("New Explorer")
- Open the browser's main menu and go to settings.
- After scrolling the list of options to the very bottom, click on the "View advanced options" button.
- In the Show home button category, move the slider to the right to change the caption to On. Then point to a specific page and enter the desired address. Don't forget to save by clicking on the floppy disk icon.
- To change the start page, go back to Settings and under the Open Microsoft Edge With category, select Specific Page or Pages. Then enter the desired address and click on the floppy disk icon to save the changes.
If the page does not want to change and nothing helps
If you still get the same unwanted page, even after changing the settings, the problem is in the virus.
If you have an antivirus installed, use it to scan your computer and remove any suspicious programs after updating the virus signature database.
If you do not have an antivirus or it did not detect malicious code, you can use the program from Malwarebytes. It is designed to remove unwanted software.
Users are not always satisfied with the standard options for the home and start pages of the browser. Often this happens when the browser comes with a mail.ru or Yandex main page preinstalled. In addition, the start page may change after installing various programs or browser add-ons. Once you figure out how to configure these features, you can easily change them at any time.
It would seem that the Internet Explorer browser is rarely used today, but this is not so, it is still used by many users. By the way, you can be sure of this if you look at the site traffic statistics, for example. And these users sometimes have problems associated with changing their favorite home page for various reasons: either when installing a program or game, the home page changed, or the browser start page changed due to a virus.
After reading this guide, you will learn how to:
- change Internet Explorer start page

How to make a home page in Internet Explorer?
