Yandex browser is one of the most popular and nimble browsers today, it is almost as good as Google Chrome. Accordingly, due to the great popularity, developers are actively engaged in covering holes and introducing new technologies, including changing the design of the browser.
For many users, the updated mode is not suitable, and for various reasons - from unwillingness to change to an increase in system glitches. In the updated mode, in addition to the redesign, live wallpapers appeared, which, in turn, load the system more. Plus, due to the fact that the design is new, various glitches may occur. Still, the main reason why users want to return the old Yandex is the lack of an official Windows support XP, because the system is not yet completely a thing of the past.
There are two main ways to bring back the old design:
- Use the standard design return function provided by the developers;
- Use a distribution of older versions.
For users who just want to return Yandex to the old form, but the browser itself works without glitches, the first method is suitable. Users having difficulty using new version browsers will be able to use the second method.
How to return the old Yandex interface?

Since there is such a function, it will not be difficult to use it, you need to:
- Open the Yandex browser;
- Go to your browser settings by clicking on the three horizontal stripes located in the upper right corner and selecting the appropriate option;
- Next, you will see the column "Appearance settings";
- Here you should click on the big button "Turn off the new interface".
Thanks to these simple actions, you can return the familiar and beloved appearance browser without using any crutches and additional programs.
How to return the old version of Yandex?
This section is designed to restore not only the previous browser interface, but also install an older version of it along with it.
The need for this action arises mainly in Windows users XP, which may experience difficulties when using an updated browser.
But nevertheless, other operating systems may be subject to lags or glitches that were not in the previous version.
There are at least 3 options to achieve this goal: get a portable browser distribution kit with the version you need, ask technical support to provide previous versions of the browser, or roll back the system.
Using a restore point
It is best to return the old Yandex browser using a system rollback, although the method implies that before that you had a fully working and successful version of the browser installed and you created a restore point at that time.
The method is quite simple and even, most likely, you do not have to roll back the entire system to the saved point. You should simply:
- Click on the Yandex browser shortcut right click and select the "Properties" option;
- Next, click on the "File Location" button;
- Exit the folder by going to the root section of the directory;
- Now right-click on the folder in which the browser files are located and select "Restore previous version";
- Then select the point you need and follow the instructions.
If this method did not help you, you will have to clear user data (cookies, cache, etc.) of the browser and try again or return the entire system to a restore point.
Installing an old distribution
Officially, Yandex does not provide access to outdated versions of the program, but there are ways to still get the program.
regular file online installation will not suit you in any case, as it will load current version from the website. Only the portable stable version will help you here.
There are two ways to find a suitable file: just search on the Internet or ask technical support. If you choose the self-search option, you may encounter a situation where the distribution is infected with a virus or there are extensions showing ads. In this case, it is better to search on trusted file hosting services, reducing the risk of system infection.
There is also an opportunity to ask for a distribution kit from browser technical support, explaining the situation with lags in your system of the new version. Supports usually respond to such requests and provide a download link.
Most likely, before installation, you will have to delete information about the operation of the new browser so that there are no errors during installation and use. Often, if this is not done, then the browser does not allow you to log into your browser account and receive information from the cloud (passwords, user settings, extensions).
It is also likely that immediately after installing the version you need, it will simply be updated to the current one and you will have to start the installation again from the beginning. In this case, you should find a file called updater.exe in the browser folder (sometimes in the user information folder) and simply delete it. You may have to first terminate the process from the "Task Manager" to remove it, it will have the same name.
Thanks to the methods described in the article, you can both simply return the familiar and convenient look of the browser, and restore its performance after updating.

Yandex browser also has an option to add to bookmarks - to save the site, you need to click on the star in address bar or use the Ctrl+D shortcut. But what if you accidentally deleted a bookmark (or tab, as they are also called) or they simply disappeared after a system reinstall?
Restoring bookmarks
If you have deleted a saved site, do not restart your browser. The Yandex browser has a function to cancel deletion, which can be accessed in the bookmark manager:
The deleted bookmark will be returned. After restarting the browser, this function no longer works, so you will not be able to return the lost tabs. You can try to roll back the system to a checkpoint - there is a chance that the web browser files will return to the state when the necessary data was still stored in them:
Rolling back the system will undo all changes that were made after the date you selected. If the function of saving checkpoints was disabled, you will not be able to roll back the system.
Synchronization and data export
If you don't want to lose your tabs, then take care of saving them as an html file or enable synchronization. To save as HTML:

Visual widgets on the scoreboard
Yandex Browser has a "Scoreboard", which saves visual bookmarks. They change on their own, showing frequently visited sites. Therefore, if you forgot about some site and didn’t visit it for a long time, then it may well disappear from Tablo. 
When one bookmark from the browser archive accidentally disappears, this is already unpleasant, but what if, after launching Yandex, they all disappeared? Restoring bookmarks is easy if you know the right approach to the settings and hot keys of the program.

Yandex.Browser is a popular web browser based on Google browser Chrome, which has gained great popularity due to its stylish interface design, simplicity and speed of operation, as well as an improved security system that prevents the user from entering fraudulent sites. Today we will talk about the restoration of this web browser.
As a rule, by restoring the browser, users mean either the normalization of its work, or the restoration of the previous parameters set by the user.
Option 1: Restore normal browser operation
If your Yandex.Browser does not work correctly and you want to restore its normal functioning, you will need to perform a complete reinstallation.
Option 2: Restore previous browser settings
For various reasons, web browser settings may suddenly change, for example, as a result of installing a program on a computer, the search system, set by default.
In this situation, you have several options: use the function Windows recovery, delete the current profile and perform browser synchronization (if you have used this feature before), as well as remove adware and reset browser settings.
Method 1: computer recovery
Windows OS provides a special tool designed to normalize the operation of the computer, which will allow you to return the system to the moment when everything worked correctly. In particular, if, say, a couple of weeks ago Yandex.Browser worked fine, then this tool it is quite suitable in order to restore the settings of the web browser.
We draw your attention to the fact that if you previously had the synchronization function activated, then all the specified settings were sent to the Yandex servers, which means that after performing a system rollback, the browser will be synchronized with your account, and the new settings will still be returned. It is rational to use this method only if synchronization is disabled in Yandex.Browser.
[Please note that the restore process may take quite a while. long time- everything will depend on how long ago you chose the rollback point. Be prepared for the fact that the computer will need several hours.
After the system restore is completed, check the browser - all previous settings will return.

In this case, you can try to solve the problem using the synchronization capabilities, but, of course, this method will only be useful if given function was used by you earlier to store all your web browser settings in the cloud.
Method 3: Restoring Settings Manually
This step implies that you will methodically and completely independently return all the changed settings.
Step 1: Remove software that changes browser settings
If the browser's search engine has been changed, it opens on startup Homepage site that you did not assign, it is almost entirely possible to say that, due to your inattention, a program was installed on your computer that changes the settings of web browsers.
Step 2: remove extensions
Browser settings can also be affected by extensions installed in the browser. Therefore, be sure to review the list of installed add-ons and remove any suspicious ones.
Step 3: Reset browser settings
