Background for Yandex browser New Year. Themes for Yandex browser, are there any? Can I use Google Chrome themes?

In this lesson I will tell you where to enable live wallpaper for the Yandex browser. I raised this topic when I talked about live wallpapers for the Google Chrome browser and the Opera browser. It's time for another browser.

In fact, everything is very simple. Live wallpapers are already included by default in the most latest version browser and for them to work you just need to update it to the latest version. Unfortunately, the screenshot cannot convey the movement of the picture, so try it.

If after the update the animation does not appear or you want to disable live wallpapers, we will do this through the settings. Click the three bars in the upper right corner and go to “Settings”.

A new tab will open, in which we find the “Appearance Settings” block. Here you can enable or disable new interface. The browser will need to be restarted to apply the settings.

Now let's figure out how you can change live wallpapers. Opening new tab and on home screen Click on the “Customize screen” link.

Thumbnails of animated screensavers will appear a little lower. Click on the one you like, and then, to save the settings, click the “Done” button.

Congratulations, now you know how to enable the new Yandex browser interface with live wallpaper.

In this tutorial you will learn how to change the theme in the browser. Google Chrome.

In this lesson I will tell you how to do old version Opera browser default.

In this tutorial I will tell you how to install the extension for Google browser Chrome.

Themes for Yandex. Many people are looking for browsers on the Internet; everyone wants to give their browser individuality and beauty. appearance, but where to look for topics? Yandex. The browser has just been released, and it does not have its own application store, like other popular browsers, but in fact, this is not the case.

The fact is that the browser is created on the engine Chromium. Many other browsers were created on its basis, including Google Chrome. The browsers are similar in appearance and in many functions, which means that themes from the Internet - Google store Chrome should also be supported in Yandex. Browser. I suggest checking it out right now.

Attention! IN this moment-this trick with themes from Google Chrome does not work, but THERE IS A WAY OUT! I suggest you download beautiful backgrounds for the Yandex browser. Just select the path/folder to unpack the exe file and the archive will be saved there.

How to change the background is written below:

1) Find this button in the lower left corner and click on it.

2) In the right corner you will find the “Download” button, through it we change the standard background to a new one.

3) Next, everything should be clear, select a picture, and confirm the changes.

It is also possible to choose themes from Google or from artists, compare them, the second option from artists looks much cooler, and there I will choose a theme for myself.

But first it’s worth saying that topics can also be found at keywords in search of.

Have you chosen your favorite topic? Let's move on to installing it. Hover your mouse over the theme and click the “Free” button, after checking the theme for compatibility, it will be installed automatically.

So, the installation is complete, let's see what happened... Yeah, I didn't expect this, top part The themes have changed, but the background remains the same, why is that? We'll find out soon...

As I found out later, it turns out that themes from Google Chrome are only partially supported, and you need to search for the background yourself, by the name of the theme, or some thematic one, for example, I found a picture of my theme through an image search, and set it as the background, and that’s what this happened. This puzzled me and I decided to find out what Yandex itself had to say about this.

This is what is written on the Yandex browser support site. Not all themes are fully compatible With Yandex browser.

It turns out that the topics are partially supported, I was outraged by this and wrote a letter to their support with a simple question: “Why is this?” And this is what they answered me.

Friends, what do I suggest? Support me! Also write letters to them support so that they move, the more letters there are, the faster the developers will make full support for themes from Google Chrome in the Yandex browser. Let's make this browser even better!

became available

Today we are making a small New Year's gift and opening a new gallery of backgrounds. Hundreds of hand-picked photos and images, plus dozens of new animated backgrounds in high quality are now available to all users of Yandex.Browser for Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android smartphones.

Our collection is hand-picked from the best works, and all of them are grouped into albums for convenience. And if you prefer to regularly change the background in your browser, you can enable automatic rotation within the selected theme.

The new background gallery is created based on web technologies, so the collection does not affect the amount of free memory on the device and can be replenished regardless of Yandex Browser updates. Therefore, we recommend that you do not disable the “Notify about new backgrounds” option.

The “Background Gallery” item will appear on a new tab in Yandex Browser (10.17.1 and later) for Windows in the coming hours. You will need to restart the Browser for the changes to take effect. On macOS, new backgrounds will appear a little later. Previously, new backgrounds have already become available to users of Yandex.Browser for smartphones.

Design themes for Yandex Browser and individual websites allow you to get rid of the standard, for some, boring, interface appearance. They create an atmosphere of individual creativity, to some extent lift your spirits and increase the comfort of use. This article will tell you how to change the background in Yandex Browser, configure “moving” images, and also how to download add-ons that provide the ability to change the background for VKontakte on Yandex Browser.

Standard settings

1. Create a new tab. Under the visual bookmarks bar, click the “Customize screen” option.

2. Click the “PLAY” icon in the selected preview to install animation in the design theme - add “live” elements to its composition.

Note. For example, in the “Mountain Tops” illustration, when this add-on is activated, clouds begin to move across the sky.

In the same block, you can change the theme (pictures), for free, and in the same way enable/disable the animation add-on in them.

3. To change the background in Yandex Browser to an image from your own photo gallery stored on your computer, click on the block with the “+” symbol on the right side of the preview row.

And then in the system window, go to the appropriate directory, select the file and click “Open”.

Setting a video instead of a background

1. Pre-prepare a small video with medium pixel resolution in any video editor. It should be “light” both in quality and in volume (footage), so that when playing video, the browser does not consume a lot of CPU resources.

2. Place the prepared video for the background on your desktop (for example, a fragment in which a car, plane, etc. is moving).

3. Open the Yandex directory:
Drive C → Users → → AppData → Local → Yandex → ​​YandexBrowser → UserData → Wallpappers

4. Open the folder of any theme for further modification.

5. Rename the prepared video file on your desktop: give it the name “video” (in previous versions of the web browser you had to specify “source”).

6. Drag the renamed video from your desktop to the theme profile folder. Confirm file replacement.

7. Launch the browser, select the theme in which you replaced the animated background for Yandex Browser with your own video.

Making a VKontakte profile

You can find many on the Internet software solutions to change the background, account design on vk.com. However, when downloading them, always ask about the developer so as not to give your credentials (username and password) into the hands of attackers.

Let's look at the most popular design addons that can be downloaded from the app store and offsites:

A cross-browser add-on that allows you to install any themes from the proposed catalog.

After clicking on the option, it opens a tab with thumbnails of the themes.

Along with a large selection of backgrounds and ease of use, it has one significant drawback. Requires the Orbitum browser to be installed on the system.

Good for a change graphic design not only on VKontakte, but also on other sites. Supports more than 10 popular web resources.

Allows you to load background images from your computer disk (the “Insert your own” option), adjust the level of transparency of page blocks, background, and brightness.

An online service that provides an add-on and a large catalog of ready-made backgrounds on various topics for popular browsers.

Connecting and setting up the service takes 4 simple steps(download, enable, change, save your own add-ons).

To download a background from the catalog on the site, you need to click the “Install…” button in its preview.

Can I use Google Chrome themes?

In earlier versions of Yandex, it was possible to download and install themes from the Chrome application store. These browsers are very similar both externally and programmatically (at the code level), since they use the same chromium engine. But at the moment this installation option does not work in most cases.

When you try to download a design in a browser through the Google Chrome app store, the message “An error has occurred” or the notification “... not supported” appears.

Additional design tools

If you need specialized extensions for other sites or want to check out other addons for creating a VKontakte profile, do the following:

1. In a web browser window, open: Menu → Add-ons → Extensions directory (at the bottom of the tab).

2. In the horizontal menu of the addon store, click to open the “More” list. Select the "Design" section.

3. Install the add-ons you are interested in from the selected section.

Create an exclusive look and feel in your favorite browser. This procedure will only take you 5-10 minutes.


The wonderful Yandex Browser has achieved high popularity thanks to its talent to adapt to the user’s personal preferences. One of the features of this browser is a full-fledged animated menu, which can be set as the theme of the main screen. In this article we will tell you how to find and install a beautiful animated background for the Yandex browser.

Where to look

A live screensaver for the Yandex browser can be found in the resources of Yandex itself. To install another animated screensaver, go to home page Click “Customize screen”:

After this, the user will be offered several animated screensavers located at the bottom of the screen:

By clicking on any of them, you can choose a topic to your liking. And if nothing suits you, we will look further.

Third party resources for setting the background

Lots of cool free backgrounds can be found on livestartpage. In addition, various enthusiasts post their own extensions, but they make the browser look alive and attractive. Many more links to live wallpapers can be found in the search engine menu.

For example, let's take any animated theme from livestartpage. The variety of topics presented has two undoubted advantages:

  • The themes are very beautiful;
  • there are really a lot of them.

To appreciate the wide selection of backgrounds, go to the site page and click “Gallery”

For example, let's take something neutral - for example, kittens. Most of us would like it if the cute fluffy miracle didn’t ruffle the sofa and tear the tights, but yawned cutely near the fireplace. No problem. Here it is, happiness:


Setting a moving background

First, let's take a closer look at the theme for the Yandex browser background:

We are offered to either watch a video with a cat, or immediately fill in the background. Watching the video is the best option. Cat lovers know that cats are unpredictable. Luckily, this kitten remained cute and well-mannered until the end of the video.

Just below the “Download for your browser” sentence there is an explanation with icons. As you can see, the animated kitten background is available for browsers:

  • Uran;
  • Mozilla Firefox;
  • Opera.

At first glance, Yandex Browser is not on the list, which means we have no chance. But don't rush to get upset. Yandex Browser is installed on the same engine as Opera, so cats will be available to us too. Click on the “Install for our browser” link and immediately find the icon:

Everything is wonderful, and the cute kitten will still decorate our autumn evenings. We agree to install:

An icon appears on the panel with which you can directly go to the livestartpage.

You will need a new icon if suddenly the kitten gets bored and wants something else.

While we were looking at the new icon, the loader completed its work:

After installation, our kitten appears, and in the lower corner of the background there are tips for beginners:

For better work Yandex Browser will need to be restarted.

Take your cat with you

If you would like the animation to accompany you on other devices, install the background for Yandex. browser after authorization. In this case, cats will appear in every case when you log into your Yandex account from another tablet, work computer or friend’s laptop. Synchronization in Yandex is almost automatic: just go to your mail or Yandex disk.
