Please note that use old version web browser significantly reduces the security of your computer. If possible, use the most latest versions this web browser, since this is the only way to guarantee maximum security for your computer and confidential information.
If you previously used an old version of Yandex.Browser on your computer, but after a while it was updated to a new one, you have the opportunity to return to previous version enough in a simple way, which involves using the system restore function.
This computer tool is aimed at troubleshooting serious problems. Its essence is that the operation of your computer will be completely returned to some time ago, namely, for a selected period of time, which corresponds to the date when you were still using the old version of Yandex.Browser.
Please note that depending on the number of changes made to the system since the day the restore point was created, the procedure itself may take a very long time (sometimes half a day).
After you have downloaded the old version of Yandx Browser, immediately turn off network access and deactivate the installation of updates - otherwise the browser will detect the latest updates and install them immediately.
If there are no rollback points available, you can try downloading an older version of the browser to your computer. This method is not recommended for the reason that old distributions are not officially distributed, which means you really have a chance to download a serious virus onto your computer, which can only be gotten rid of by reinstalling Windows.
We do not provide download links for the old version of the browser, however, they are not that difficult to find. But there's one here important nuance: Having downloaded and installed the old version of Yandex Browser on your computer, immediately restrict your computer’s access to the network, and then be sure to disable the installation of updates using the method described in the article above. Only after this can you begin full use Yandex.Browser. These are all the methods that allow you to return the old version of Yandex.Brower. If you have any questions, be sure to leave them in the comments.
Hello everyone Today we’ll talk about Yandex Browser, or rather about one of its problems that happened to it. Well, you probably already suspect that this is what I mean, I’m talking about the design of the browser, that is, about its design: the design that everyone is familiar with took and disappeared. He is a thing of the past, and in his place came more new design Yandex Browser, and in new versions of the browser it can no longer be returned old design. But can this be fixed? You can guys, you can, you need to do something, many users are looking on the Internet for how to return the old Yandex Browser design, but they still can’t find an answer...
But why did the Yandex Browser design change, you thought? Well, it seems to me that they changed it because it was kind of not very good, and so they came up with a new one.. That is, the new type design is better than the old one, they didn’t ask anyone, they showed this design first, but in its settings could be turned off. But then this option was removed, that is, either you use Yandex Browser with a new design, or if you don’t like the new design, then guys, that’s your problem.. Well, isn’t it funny?
Okay guys, let's think about it. So look, this is what the browser looks like with the new design:
This is his home page, so to speak, you see the background there, the clouds? This is all animated, that is, it moves, although you probably already know that. It's kind of a fashionable feature. If you open a tab, like the Yandex search engine, the browser will look like this:
In principle, guys, it seems that everything is not so bad, you can definitely use it. But it was better before, there was such a regular window, so to speak, in the Windows style, it seems that this is the main difference. Well, there was no this fashionable browser screensaver. So, what needs to be done to return the old Yandex Browser design? The first thing that came to my mind was to delete new version browser and install the old one. In principle, I was even sure that this was exactly the right decision. And I started looking for the old version, but it was very difficult to find it, because there are no old versions on the official website. Well, on other sites, you understand, the browser can be glued with a virus, well, in short, it’s not entirely safe...
All actions, well, to return the old design, need to be carried out only with the Yandex Browser closed, well, I’m telling you this just in case!
But then I came across an old and respected RuBoard forum, it’s an old forum, but it’s full of all kinds of information, the most important thing is that the information is necessary, you know. The forum is smart! Well, on this forum, in a topic about Yandex Browser, I found this information (one user wrote there) that they say you can write something in some file and this should return the old browser design, even if you have a new version of Yandex Browser that does not support returning to the old design. Well, to be honest, it was hard to believe, but I tried anyway. And you know what? I was pleasantly surprised, because this trick worked and I was able to return the old design on the new version of the browser, it’s just super. In general, I tell you everything how to do it. See you need to pinch Win buttons+ R, then the Run window will appear, there you need to write the following command:
This command is needed to get into the Roaming folder. In general, click OK, a folder will open, in it you need to click here:
This is in order to get exactly into AppData folder. Next you will be taken to this folder, here you already need to go to the Local folder:
Are you in the Local folder? Great, now inside, follow this path, that is, you need to get here:
\Yandex\YandexBrowser\User Data
You will most likely have almost the same thing inside you as I do, well, that is, this:
Well, now the most important thing is that in this folder you need to find a file such as Local State, here I have it:
Guys, we'll have to edit the Local State file, you know? Therefore, just in case, I advise you to make a copy of it, but you never know.
Now we open it, that is, click on it twice, then there will be a program selection, select Notepad there:
Click OK, the file will open in Notepad, inside it there will be all sorts of things like this:
Well, it’s clear that it’s not particularly clear what’s what. What you need to do here is this, you need to open the Edit menu, and there find the Replace item, and select it:
The Replace window will appear and there will be two fields, What and What, this is the window with these fields:
Well, I think you understand what these fields are? Well, now you need to do very strictly what I am about to write. So where the What field is, then you insert this:
"custo_ui_first_time_launch":false,
Where the Than field is, then there you write this:
"custo_use_classic_interface":true,"custo_ui_first_time_launch":false,
Write exactly as I indicated here, with all commas and quotation marks. As a result, your window should look like this:
Well, as you already understood, all you have to do is click the Replace All button once. I repeat that the button must be pressed once, no more! Then click on the cross text document, there will be a message like this, here you click the Save button:
Then launch Yandex Browser and see if anything has changed, that is, if the old design has returned:
As you can see, everything worked out, the old design has actually returned, which, it seems to me, is really a little more pleasant
I hope that at that moment, well, when you read this article, the link will work. Well, it shouldn't stop working at all.
As you can see, on the one hand it’s simple, but on the other you need to tinker a little... I’ll also show you this, now it’s 2017, the version of Yandex Browser I have is this:
I’m showing you the version so that you know that in this version (16.11.1.673) this trick definitely works. But whether it will work in future versions, I don’t know, but most likely it will. But sooner or later, a version may calmly come where such a trick will no longer work, this is a point you need to take into account. Therefore, you can right now download Yandex Browser, its installer, but not the web installer (it always downloads the latest version from the Internet), namely the offline installer, so that you have it just in case. What if the trick of returning the old design won’t work in the next Yandex Browser update? Well, you understand..
These are the pies guys, as you can see, it’s a bit of a hassle, but you can still return the old Yandex Browser design. If anything, read the RuBoard forum, it's cool. Well, that’s all, I hope that everything was clear to you here, but if something is wrong, then you’ll excuse me. Good luck in life and may everything go well for you
09.01.2017Yandex browser — free browser created by Yandex based on free browser with open source code Chromium. Yandex Browser is distinguished by a laconic design and high speed of operation, thanks to the Turbo mode. The browser protects your computer from infected pages, warns about dangerous sites, and checks downloaded files for viruses.
Download new Yandex Browser free from the official website. We monitor all program updates so that you have latest version Yandex browser.
Often, along with updates, users also encounter a number of problems. For example, when updating a browser from Yandex, difficulties with launching or other errors may occur. In order not to take radical measures, some decide to return old Yandex browser by uninstalling the new version. However, in the browser settings you can only get rid of the updated browser interface, and not the entire version. So is there a way to go back to an old but stable version of the web browser?
So, if you are planning to remove the Yandex browser update, then we have two news for you: good and bad. Good news The point is that it can still be done. And secondly, most likely, this will not work for all users.
Maybe you just don't like it appearance updated Yandex Browser? In this case, you can always turn it off in the settings. Otherwise, the browser will continue to work as before. You can do it like this:
Click on the button " Menu" and go to " Settings»;
Immediately we see the button “ Disable new interface" and click on it;
In a new browser tab, you will see a notification that the interface has been disabled.
This method is the main one when trying to return the old version of the browser. And if you have system restore enabled and also have a suitable restore point, then this way you can return the old version of the browser.
Before starting a system restore, do not forget to look at which programs are affected by the restore and, if necessary, save necessary files. However, you don't have to worry about the various files you downloaded to your computer or manually created (such as folders or Word documents), since they will remain untouched.
Alternatively, you can uninstall the new version of the browser and then install the old version. While deleting a browser isn't that difficult, finding the old version will be much more difficult. There are, of course, sites on the Internet where you can download old versions of the browser, but often it is in such files that attackers like to add malicious files or even viruses. Unfortunately, Yandex itself does not provide links to archived versions of the browser, as, for example, Opera does. We will not recommend any third-party resources for security reasons, but if you are confident in your abilities, you can independently find past versions of Yandex Browser on the Internet.
As for removing the browser: for this we recommend removing the browser not in the classic way through “Add or Remove Programs”, but special utilities For complete removal programs from a computer. In this way, you can correctly install the browser from scratch. By the way, we have already talked about this method on our website.
These are the methods you can use to restore the old version of your browser. You can also always contact the service technical support Yandex on browser recovery issues.
