Yandex browser previous versions. How to return the old view of the Yandex browser
Yandex browser, despite its relative "youth" in comparison with other browsers, very quickly gained popularity and its own niche of users.
As you know, many people have a negative attitude towards changes in anything. This situation also happened with the Yandex browser, many users negatively perceived the new look of this program, which brought new interface, and hence the great interest in how to return old version.
Let's say right away that the updates bring not only design changes. Usually, the previous version is more susceptible to various threats: this includes security issues, the elimination of "holes" in the program and the addition of new useful options. Naturally, all this leads to greater load on the processing power of the device on which the browser is installed. This is another reason for user dissatisfaction and the desire to return to the old design.
In this regard, there are two options for how to return the usual old Yandex browser.
Program features
If you decide to restore the Yandex browser to its previous form only because you like the old design, and everything else suits you, then the best option will take advantage of the opportunity provided by the developers for this occasion.
To revert to the old interface:
- Open the browser;
- Click on the "Menu" icon (three horizontal bars in the upper right part of the window);
- In the pop-up window, select "Settings".
- In the page that opens, go to the "Appearance settings" section.
- The new version is enabled by default. Click on the "Turn off the new interface" button.
- Accordingly, the reverse process will be the same, only the button will be called "Enable new interface".
- End the session and restart the browser.
Attention! This option is a transitional version of the program, and will be absent in newer versions. This was done to make it easier for old users to adapt to the new interface.
What to do for those who do not have such a copy or the new version simply does not support the installed operating system (Yandex officially announced the end of support for Windows XP in its new versions).
Installing an old version
Effective way to return the old version of Yandex browser is to completely remove the current version and install the distribution kit with the version of the program released before the update.
If you have not previously downloaded the installer, then you need to download it. Unfortunately, the official site will not be able to help us with this, but any search engine can help. With the help of it, we find the version of interest on the network, since there are enough file hosting services with various software, and they work completely free of charge.
The method, of course, is not very rational, because if you do not have a good resource in mind that you can trust, there is a small chance that the downloaded files contain some kind of virus.
Before installing, remove the browser from our device. To do this, we use the standard functions of the operating system:
Click the "Start" button -> "Control Panel" -> "Programs and Features".
In the window that opens, select Yandex browser from the list and click the "Delete" button.
We are waiting for the end of the process and proceed to the installation.
Attention! After removing the program from your computer, you lose access to all saved personal data: passwords, browsing history, bookmarks and more. The deleted browser cannot be restored. If you do not remember your passwords, write them down in advance, save your bookmarks for transfer.
Installation is also not a difficult process:
- Find downloaded installation package and double-click to launch the installation;
- We agree to the terms;
- We are waiting for the installation to finish.
The whole process will take place automatically and after completion you can use the program with the old interface.
Advice! After installing the program in the settings disable automatic update, otherwise all our work will be in vain and the browser will pull up the latest version.
System Restore
Another way to return the old version of the browser after updating it is to use the properties of the operating system and roll back the system to the previous restore point (Provided that you have this option enabled and a restore point has been created).
You can do this in two ways:
- Rollback only the browser itself.
- Restore the system completely.
The first way is simple and clear. Restoring old version product:
1. On the shortcut of the program, call context menu right click mouse and select "Properties";
2. In the window that opens, click on the button "File location";
3. Go to the root of this directory;
4.Right-click for this folder, select the item "Restore the previous version";
This will open a window with a list of possible restore points. We select and wait for the end of the process.
The second option is more global. It should be understood that the rollback of the entire system will entail not only browser changes, but may also affect other programs and components. If you really need to use the old Yandex browser design, then:
- On the keyboard, press the key combination Win + R;
- In the window that opens, enter the restore command;
- Choose a restore point and confirm your desire.
Alternative way:
Start -> Control Panel -> Recovery -> Start System Restore.
Thus, we see that there are ways to keep old design browser interface. But no matter how much we want, sooner or later, we will have to get used to something new, as development does not stand still and developers make changes to their product, refusing to support older versions.
Often, along with updates, a number of problems also come to users. For example, when updating a browser from Yandex, you may experience launch difficulties or other errors. In order not to take drastic measures, some decide to return the old Yandex browser by deleting the new version. However, in the browser settings, you can only get rid of the updated browser interface, and not the entire version. So is there a way to go back to the old one, but stable version web browser?
So, if you are planning to remove the Yandex browser update, then we have two news for you: good and bad. The good news is that it can still be done. And the second - most likely, not all users will succeed.
Switching to the old interface
Maybe you just don't like it appearance updated Yandex.Browser? In such a case, you can always turn it off in the settings. The rest of the browser will continue to work as before. You can do it like this:
Click on the button " Menu" and go to " Settings»;
Immediately we see the button " Disable new interface"and click on it;
In a new browser tab, you will see a notification that the interface has been turned off.
OS Recovery
This method is the main one when trying to return the old version of the browser. And if you have system restore turned on, and also have a suitable restore point, then this way you can return the old version of the browser.
Before starting a system restore, be sure to check which programs are affected by the restore and, if necessary, save necessary files. However, you don't have to worry about various manually downloaded or manually created files (such as folders or Word documents) as they will remain untouched.
Downloading an old version of the browser
Alternatively, you can uninstall the new version of the browser and then install the old version. If it is not so difficult to remove the browser, it will be much more difficult to find the old version. Of course, there are sites on the Internet where you can download old versions of the browser, but it is often in such files that attackers like to add malicious files or even viruses. Unfortunately, Yandex itself does not provide links to archived versions of the browser, as, for example, Opera does. We will not recommend any third party resources for security reasons, but if you are confident in your abilities, you can independently find past versions of Yandex.Browser on the network.
As for removing the browser: for this, we recommend removing the browser not in the classic way through "Add or Remove Programs", but special utilities for complete removal programs from a computer. In this way, you can correctly install the browser from scratch. By the way, we have already talked about this method on our website.
These are the ways you can restore the old version of the browser. You can always contact the service technical support Yandex on browser recovery.

So you still can't get away from downloading the necessary codecs.

For some time now, users of early releases of Windows XP have suddenly begun to notice that their system has ceased to receive the attention of developers and new versions of old programs often do not start. A similar “surprise” could have arisen with Yandex Browser. Usually this was found out only after an unsuspecting XP user updated his working browser to a new version. After timid attempts to restore it, it turns out that there is nowhere to download it from.
In the described case, you need to upgrade XP to servicepack latest version. But the problem of fresh servicepacks is not the topic of the article, but is used as an example of a situation in which it became necessary to get an old version of the browser. In the article we will outline the points that allow you to restore the old browser.
What to do and where to get the old browser?
You can go three ways:
- Revert the operating system to an earlier restore point.
- Contact Yandex Browser support and ask them to solve the problem
- Try to find a distribution kit on the Internet
These issues will be discussed in more detail in the next subsection.
About the development of Internet browsers in a company with the letter I
Without hiding my encroachment on academicism, I dare at the very beginning of our conversation about old Internet clients to do brief digression to the world of Yandex Browsers. Quite short.
Yandex Browser was created in 2012 based on the Blink framework. Popularity in RuNet is about 8%. The browser supports HTML5 technology. 
Since October 2013, browser releases have been marked in a special way: “XX.YY”. The first two digits are the year of issue, the second is the month. For example, the marking “14.11” means that the browser was released in November 2014.
Yandex.Alpha - new browser with a revolutionary interface. The purpose of the development is to open the pages to the entire screen. The scoreboard has become animated, and the tabs have been moved down. The browser is integrated with all Yandex services. Built-in support for third-party extensions. So-called “mouse gestures” are used, when the movement of the mouse along a certain trajectory is interpreted as a command to the browser. For example, clicking and moving the mouse along the trajectory “to the right down and immediately to the left” will serve as a command: “return the closed tab”.
How to Install a Previous Internet Browser Release
Let's consider three options for actions aimed at returning the browser from Yandex to the old version.
Operating system rollback
If you use "restore points" in the OS, then it is likely to fall back to more early version will restore the old settings of the programs installed on the system. If the browser was updated automatically and then stopped working, there is a pretty good chance to return it to its original state.
If you don't use this technology or turned it off, then you will not be able to use this method.
Support contact
First, go to the browser's technical support section: yandex.ru/support/yabrowser/support/support.xml. Next, find the link “feedback form” in the text and follow it. There will be some kind of confusing redirect, after which you will be taken back to the page where you will be asked to ask a question. Look for a link there again. feedback and enter your message about unsuccessful attempts to restore the previous version of the Internet client into the form.
Using distributions saved by other users
You can be tempted to solve the problem here and now, without having to deal with long correspondence with the support service or understanding the rollback point settings (were there any at all?). And then the hand reaches out to drive something like “download old Yandex” into the search. The result may surprise you search results will be full of offers to download the program. Especially touching you will be an indication of the free download. Only these sites will be unofficial and only God knows what you will download to your computer along with the distribution kit and what problems may appear after that. Perhaps they will be such that more than one browser will have to be restored.
From which site can I download the Internet browser?
Alas, I will not advise you, dear reader, where you can download the “long-suffering” Yandex Browser and here's why. Because there is no official such possibility - Yandex does not provide links to download old versions in open access. But this does not mean that he will not give you a link during a private correspondence with the support service, if you tearfully ask.
However, we analyzed all this in the previous subsection - I send you there for further steps in the study of this issue.
Both comments and trackbacks are currently closed.
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 official support for Windows XP, because the system has not yet completely become a thing of the past.
There are two main ways to bring back the old design:
- take advantage standard function return of the design laid down 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?
The replacement of the interface is provided by the developers, most likely only at first, so that there is no panic around the design change, because people are arranged in such a way that they do not perceive changes well. Since there is such a function, it will not be difficult to use it, you need to:
- Open the Yandex browser;
- Go to the browser settings by clicking on the icon of 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 steps, you can return the familiar and beloved appearance of the browser without the use of 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 still, others OS 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 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:
- Right-click on the Yandex browser shortcut 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 programs, but there are ways to still get the program.
The usual online installation file will not work for you in any case, as it will download current version from the site. 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 in the folder with the browser (sometimes in the folder with user information) find a file called updater.exe and just 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.
