When you install the browser, the start page is usuallyset by the developer. It can be an official developer site, one of the popular search engines or mail services, or a quick access bar to sites. But if you want, you can change the start page, set by default, to the one you need personally.
Sometimes there is a need to change the startingpage if you installed a program or game, and she arbitrarily set the home page of the developer as the start page. Usually this happens because during the installation you forgot to remove the corresponding check mark.
Sometimes the start page changes the virus. In this case, before you set a new start page, you need to clean the computer from viruses.
