Browser start page
Instead of the start page, Yandex Browser opens either your Tableau (with your most frequently visited pages), or the tabs that were left open during your last session. To select your preferred option:

In this section, you can also set Yandex as your homepage. To do this, select the Open yandex.com if home page is empty option.

- All browser extensions will be disabled.
- Pinned tabs will be deleted.
- All personal information will be deleted.
To clear your browser settings:
