My home page used to be Yahoo as that is where my emails go to.
How can I change it to Yahoo on Win 10?

    What browser? Edge? If so, Open Edge, Open settings (three dots, top right - settings), then go to the 'Open microsoft edge with'. You can set your home page there.

    If you are using the default browser in windows 10 (edge) then do this ..

    Change where it says "enter a web address" to the page you want to be your homepage, then click the +

    then click the X next to the "about start" one
    (sorry about my dodgy arrows, my mouse is playing up)


    If it is Internet explorer you are using, then its :-


    Tools>internet options and then edit the bit that says "home page"

    And if it's Firefox it's Tools | Options | General | Home Page.

    And if it's Chrome it is [3 lines] | Settings and choose the required option under On start-up. (I use the Set pages bit).

    I'm sure you get the idea now that it's NOT a Windows home page. ;)

    Thanks all of you, yes, at the moment it is Edge since changing to Win 10.
    I knew how to do it in IE but couldn't see where to change it in Edge.

    I'll have a go in a bit.

    It doesn't quite look like that since the update Andy, but, the basics are the same.;)
