Where is the context menu in Yandex. Bringing back the browser's "menu bar". Options to change the browser's appearance

Most web browsers have a different approach to forming home page, which we get to after creating a new window. In Yandex browser role home page performs a Tableau, which we can customize according to our own preferences: increasing the number of pages, changing the background, name, size, etc. Although the panel is multifunctional, it is not entirely clear to configure; you have to spend a long time searching for how to change the Tableau parameters in the Yandex web browser. In fact, developers simply limit the number of Tableau settings, so it is often difficult or impossible to perform any action.

The scoreboard is a page with thumbnails of frequently visited pages and a Zen feed. It appears by default when opening a new window and after clicking on the address bar. If you open the Tableau in Yandex browser on new page, the user is usually shown 7-8 sites in the form of widgets. The Tableau contains widgets of sites that were visited more often than others, as well as some pages of Yandex products. To compile a list of websites, the browser uses history data, it determines the number of entries to a particular site and, on this basis, compiles the top.

Just now installed browser The Tableau shows sites that are often opened through Google Chrome or another web browser from which the settings for Yandex browser.

The system for creating widgets on Tableau is quite smart, but it is still not able to predict all our preferences. Sometimes this causes difficulties when a site is removed from the panel and some extraneous web resource is added in its place. We can prevent sites from being automatically added to the Tableau by manually setting up widgets. It is also possible to independently change the name of the widget, site and link.

Important! Scoreboard for each Yandex browser on different devices user is configured separately. If your web browser is set to desktop computer and laptop or smartphone, Scoreboards work independently in both browsers. The developers did this, understanding that devices can be intended for different purposes.

How to change Tableau in Yandex browser

Setting up Tableau in the Yandex browser allows you to personalize the start page for each user. This way we can improve the browser's performance when performing frequent tasks. For example, we can create a work profile and a home account. When you change your account, the Tableau changes along with it.

Adding Tabs

This is the most common task that allows you to get quick access to the required sites. The added web resource will always be displayed on the browser start page before opening a new tab. In the future, you just need to click on the widget once and the site or its page will automatically start loading. We can add a website to the Yandex Browser Tableau in just a few clicks.

How to add to Tableau in Yandex browser:

When adding a widget, we can use keywords. Just start entering addresses, names or descriptions of the site and the Yandex browser will offer possible options URLs.

Important nuance! In the Yandex web browser there are such concepts as pinned and undocked widgets. Loose pages change on their own. The browser algorithm calculates the frequency of visits to sites at certain intervals and can change sites or remove them completely. Manually added widgets are pinned and do not change automatically.

In the Yandex browser, the number of widgets on the Tableau is limited. We can install a maximum of 20 sites.

Editing bookmarks on Tableau

There are not too many options for editing widgets, but we can:

• Move widgets. We can change the order of sites on the board by holding down left button mouse and moving it in any direction.

Deleting sites

Removing any widget is as easy as shelling pears:

After manually deleting an automatically created widget, this site will no longer appear on the Tableau, regardless of the number of transitions to it. The only way to restore it is to manually add it to the Tableau.

Changing the background on the Tableau

We can install regular backgrounds or animation on the Tableau, then the browser becomes more attractive.

How to change the background:

We can read more about the background in the Yandex browser in.

Disabling the Zen Tape

It is easy to notice that the Tableau contains not only website widgets, but also the Zen news feed. A special algorithm selects news on topics of interest and displays them in a list. This is not always interesting, so we recommend turning off the feed.

How to remove Zen from Tableau:

If you want to return the tape, check the box next to the same line again.

How to enlarge the Tableau in the Yandex browser

Many users want to make the Tableau in Yandex browser larger than the standard size. This may mean:

• Expanding the screen with Tableau in the Yandex browser to accommodate more pages (limit 20 widgets);
• Increasing the size of widgets.

Unfortunately, it is neither possible to increase the size of the Tableau in the Yandex browser nor to exceed the limit of widgets on the page. The developers have blocked this feature. At the same time, in older versions of the web browser, it is possible to make widgets larger using two methods:

• Reduce the number of sites. The fewer widgets on the Tableau, the larger each element. IN new version this is not relevant;
• Remove the Zen ribbon. The method has been described previously. It doesn't work now either.

Is it possible to remove the Tableau in the Yandex web browser?

Now our ability to customize the Tableau is limited. It was possible to disable Tableau in the Yandex browser several versions ago, but not now. Previously, there was a corresponding line in “Settings” appearance" Now we have to put up with the scoreboard in any case.

The scoreboard does disappear periodically, but this is an anomalous behavior of the browser associated with errors in its operation. Usually disappearance indicates system errors.

How to return the Tableau in Yandex browser if it is missing

It is possible to return the Tableau in the Yandex browser using several steps:

1. We check the absence of viruses in the system. Infected operating room Windows system help get rid of malicious code: Kaspersky, NOD32, Avast, Dr. Web and other antiviruses.
   
2. We remove the synchronization failure. Users with synchronization turned off are more likely to experience crashes. Restoring synchronization should resolve the issue.
   
3. Checking for updates.
   

We can customize the scoreboard in Yandex browser to suit ourselves: by installing our own site widgets, changing their location and deleting unnecessary ones, but not all parameters can be changed. However, you cannot increase the size of the Tableau, expand the number of available widgets, or completely disable the Tableau.

Each browser can and should be customized. Let's look at the menu of settings that can be changed in Yandex.Browser, and how to save and transfer the changed options to another device.

What settings are available in Yandex.Browser, where are they located and how to change them

You can go to the settings block in just two clicks:

The internal Yandex Browser tab will open, which contains the main settings for configuration.

Options to change the browser's appearance

In the “Appearance Settings” section you can change the program interface. By default, all items in this block are enabled. To disable them, just uncheck the boxes. Let's look at each option separately:

• show the "Yandex" button. It is located to the left of the address bar in the form of the letter “I”. By clicking on it, the user will go to the search engine of the same name;

  

  The "Yandex" button is located to the left of the browser's address bar

  

• show a button to turn on reading mode in the “Smart Line”. It is located in the address bar immediately after the page refresh icon. In reading mode, you see only the article itself without pop-up advertising windows that interfere with the perception of information. You can choose the font and background color that is comfortable for your eyes;

  

  Reading mode allows users to read articles in a convenient format

• disable background animation to save battery power. Animation increases the device's energy consumption. To prevent the battery from draining quickly, leave a checkmark next to this option;
• display animated background in new tab in high resolution. If you want your browser to be beautifully designed, enable this item;
• show a feed of personal recommendations in the new “Zen” tab. “Zen” contains descriptions of articles that Yandex.Browser recommends for you to read personally. The selection is made based on your search queries and a list of sites that have been visited. The ribbon is located under the bookmarks bar in each new tab that opens;

  

• Highlight the active tab. With this option enabled, you will not lose the current tab among the many open pages;
• Allow viewing online videos in a separate window. Movies or just short videos are played in this case separately from open tabs, that is, in a new window.

Changing proxy server settings and encryption according to GOST

In the “Network” block, a Yandex.Browser user can configure a proxy server on his PC using the “Change proxy server settings” button. This will ensure anonymity on the Internet. Your real IP address, and therefore your real location data, will be hidden from other network users.

If you need to go to a site, for example, www.gosuslugi.ru, which uses encryption according to GOST algorithms, check the box to the left of the item “Connect to sites that use GOST encryption.” In this case, you must have the utility “ CryptoPro CSP" It is available on the official website.

In the “Network” block you can configure a proxy server and switch to resources that use GOST encryption

Synchronizing browser data using a shared account

Synchronization is configured in the first block of the “Settings” tab. It allows you to move all bookmarks, passwords, browsing history, browser settings and other Yandex Browser settings to your other devices. This is possible through a general Yandex account. To synchronize, simply log into your account. This is especially convenient if you need to work in Yandex browser on someone else's computer.

Synchronization restores all Yandex.Browser data on other devices, including program settings

Improving Internet speed in the “Turbo” section

This option allows you to speed up the program if the Internet speed has decreased. Here you can select the following values:

• "Automatically turn on when connection is slow." If you don’t want to manually enable this mode every time;
• "Always on." Can be used if the Internet connection speed is always low;
• "Off." Select this value if you are confident that your Internet speed will never slow down.

You can also enable connection speed notifications and enable video compression. By default, these options are checked.

Improve your Internet speed in the “Turbo” section

Experimental features

Not every user of Yandex.Browser knows what it contains hidden settings.These are called experimental features and are located in a separate secret section.

It is not safe to change settings in the Experimental Features section. It is highly not recommended for novice users to customize anything on this page, because after changes the browser may become unstable.

To open the secret section, enter the following address into your browser: browser://flags/.

It is not safe to change parameters in the experimental features window

Why experimental features are useful:

• improve browser performance and increase the speed of work in it (Experimental canvas features, Scroll prediction, Simple Cache for HTTP and others);
• block advertisements (Page-by-page ad blocker);
• include animation (Animation effects), visual effects blurs and reflections and much more.

Please note that the set of experimental functions is constantly changing and some functions may no longer be available in new versions of Yandex.Browser.

The "Languages" section contains the following options for setting up languages ​​and translations

In this section you can change the following settings:

• “Offer to translate pages whose language differs from the interface language.” This is necessary for those people who cannot understand the meaning of what is written in English or any other language;

Tabs position

Many people are accustomed to having tabs at the top of the browser, but there are also those who want to see this panel at the bottom. Try both options, " Above" or " From below", and decide which one suits you best.

User Profiles

You've probably already used another Internet browser before installing Yandex.Browser. During that time, you have already managed to “inhabit it” by creating bookmarks of interesting sites and setting the necessary parameters. To make working in a new web browser as comfortable as in the previous one, you can use the function of transferring data from the old browser to the new one. To do this, click on the button " Import bookmarks and settings" and follow the assistant's instructions.

Turbo

By default, the web browser uses the Turbo function whenever the connection is slow. Disable this feature if you do not want to use Internet acceleration.

This completes the basic settings, but you can click on the “ Show advanced settings", where there are also several useful parameters:

Passwords and forms

By default, the browser offers to remember entered passwords on certain sites. But if account you are not the only one using the computer, it is better to disable the functions " Enable form autofill with one click" And " Offer to save passwords for websites».
