If you often use services from the most famous Russian search engine, it makes sense to make Yandex the start page automatically now so that you do not 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 the standard mechanisms for changing application settings or using a resource specially created for this, where an application or add-on is responsible for setting the settings.
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. He program method 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:
In the same way as it is done in Chrome, you can make the Yandex start page in the Firefox browser:

But the Opera was "unlucky": when opening the same https://home.yandex.ru/ only instructions for manual prescribing are displayed ( detailed description below in this article).
By default, nothing needs to be done: if there was no open tabs, the browser will launch a native search engine. If for some reason it does not work for you, open the settings menu.
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:

Another way to get on Yandex is to do search engine not the start page, but the place where the button with the house is redirected. To do this, go to the appearance in the settings and activate the corresponding control element. Then switch the selection to enter the URL and enter the address of the search engine there (by the way, you can also use the simplified version of ya.ru).
After that, to go to it, it will be enough to click on the icon with the image of the house that appears on the toolbar.
It is worth opening a search portal in Firefox - and Yandex itself will be asked to become the start page. You can accept the offer.
But it’s just as easy to make Yandex the start page in Mazil with your hands as in Chrome - it’s not by chance that Mozilla Firefox quite successfully resists the leader in the browser market. Proceed like this:
Hint: If the portal is already open, then with one click on the button about using the current tab (right below the input field), it will be registered in the settings.
And 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 "grab" the tab with the mouse and drag it to the button.
In the dialog that appears, agree to change the setting.
In Opera, you can make Yandex the start page both through the menu and using hot keys. If you want to use the first option, click on the corporate icon in the upper left and select "Settings". If the second - 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 are already in the portal.

On the tab with general settings, enter the desired URL.
It can also be noted that it is necessary to start by opening the home address, then after turning on the browser will not return to the previous session.
The Yandex start page in the Microsoft Edge browser is also configured through the settings (only not behind the gear, but behind the three dots). It is necessary for the correct display of the new window to specify a specific URL and save it by clicking on the floppy disk icon.
On an Android phone, the procedure for making Yandex the start page depends on the browser you are using. If software from Yandex is used, 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.
