After windows 9 was install from my updates onto my computer I can't keep my home page of yahoo as my default page I don,t like windows 9 is there anyway Is there any way I can go back to the way my computer was set when I bough it this year.

Windows 7 is not a web browser, it has nothing to do with your home page.
Installing crapware and letting it do its "default" installation, instead of you controlling a "custom" installation is changing your web browser's home page, and possibly installing more crapware automatically along the way.

Are you running Firefox 19.0.1, if not download here: http://www.filehippo.com/download_firefox/ Open the options in Firefox change hone page. You may want to run freeware MALWAREBYTES at : http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/ In the install UNCHECK the TRIAL PRO version, you want the freeware version, run a FULL Scan, delete ALL results, reboot. Depending on the size of your HDD it may take hours. ALSO, download freeware CCLEANER at: http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ This freeware program has many useful tools to clean up and speed up your machine, open the TOOLS section, STARTUP section, disable ALL unnessary startup programs to speedup starts and running of your computer.

Try a manual update, and manage yourself. Update only those needed. For instance languages that you don't use or have installed. Also, not so many at a time. Plus, it may show you failed update.

install the latest version of the Yahoo toolbar & see if that solves the problem. One of the options during installation is to include a mail add-in and to set Yahoo as the default mail. If you don't want to use the toolbar, it can always be hidden from view

click start control panel internet options you will see a home page box To Create Page Tabs type each adress on its own line (type in yahoo.com)or your preferred browser
scroll to top of screen right click in the toolbar you will a menu select it also see all toolbars available to you just click on any you want
hope this helps you

Welcome to FixYa!


The XML application in your computer might be corrupted which Yahoo Messenger uses to display the chat box properly. In most cases, it is the result of a virus/malware activity.


Here's what to do:

• 1. Download the Free Edition of Malware Bytes HERE.
  
• 2. Save the file.
  
• 3. Double click the downloaded file or if prompted to run the file, click yes to install Malware Bytes.
  
• 4. After installation. Launch or Open Malware Bytes. (Double click on the Malware Bytes icon on the desktop).
  
• 5.Click on the Update Tab and click on Check Updates (It will download the latest virus definitions)
  
• 6. After updating, click the Scanner Tab and do a Full Scan.
  
• 7. After scanning, click on View Results.
  
• 8. Then click on Remove Selected.
  

Note:

The Free Edition of Malware Bytes will not conflict your recent anti-virus software because it does not have real time protection features.


Try logging in to your Yahoo Messenger again.


If this does not resolve the issue, re-install Yahoo Messenger. Since the Malwares have been removed, there is a great chance that the re-installation will solve the problem.

I hope that this will help.
Thank you for using FixYa.

1. You need to change your Home Page. Decide what you want for a home page, e.x. google.com, msn.com, bing.com, pcrepairshop.org, etc.
2. Open up your Start Menu, followed by opening your Control Panel.
3. Find the Internet Option Control Panel and open it.
4. Type in your desired home page in the Home Page box of the Internet Properties window.
5. Click Apply and OK. Open a new instance of Internet Explorer to see your Home Page.

Yahoo doesn't offer a browser of their own. You can make it the default homepage of any browser.

Internet Explorer, Firefox (Mozilla), Chrome (by Google) and Opera are browsers most commonly used with Windows. Safari is the Mac OSX/iOS browser.

In Internet Explorer to make a page the default homepage, open the Tools menu. (Click on the Gear icon or Tools (press Alt to show the menu)) Then select Internet Options. In the General tab, you can either set the current page as the default homepage or enter a specific URL to be the homepage. Click Apply to save your changes and click OK. When you restart IE, the listed page will be the homepage.

In Firefox, click Tools and then Options. Under the General Tab, you will be able to enter your homepage choice.

Similar options exist for other browsers but I don't know their toolbars.

If you can't reset the homepage, either malware has been installed or a malware blocker is actively preventing you from changing the homepage. (A malware blocker should pop up with an "I've stopped this action" message. Then you should be able to disable it to change your homepage and then re-enable it.)

I hope this helps.

(Yahoo does have their own IM program but I don't know the program. For Windows, you can select the default program in the Control Panel. For Win7 Start > Control Panel > Programs > Set Default Programs and Set Program Access and Computer Defaults.)

This behavior may occur if you install Windows XP Service Pack 1a (SP1a) on your computer, and do any of the following:

• You upgrade your Windows XP Home-based computer to Windows XP Professional.
• You reinstall Windows XP on your computer.
• You perform a repair of Windows XP on your computer.

To resolve this behavior, after you upgrade your Windows XP Home-based computer to Windows XP Professional, or you perform a reinstall or repair of Windows XP, reinstall Windows XP SP1a on your computer.

After you reinstall the service pack, restart your computer.
