Then, open the Chrome Extensions page in the browser, and at the top of the page check Developer Mode to be 'On'. Long time I'm not writing on this forum. I have this problem on Chrome. I have followed all your steps, WPM seems to be installed but there is a message 'this. I have been using Google Chrome for several months, and find it good. However suddenly, on the two computers I use, the Home Screen has been replaced by another, complicated screen. How do I correct this, and restore the original screen.

A good way to clean your system is to download and run the free, but adware will often change your browser’s homepage, too, which you may need to fix manually. So here’s how to change your homepage on the Mac if you’ve happened to get some baddies on your system! Change Your Homepage in Safari For the Mac’s built-in browser, you’ll open the app, click on the “Safari” menu in the upper-left, and choose “Preferences.” When that next window opens, click on the “General” tab at the top, and then you’ll see the place where you can type in what home page you’d like. To test the change, close your Safari window or quit the browser. Next, open a new Safari window. If you’ve configured Safari’s preferences to open new windows with your homepage, you’ll see it. If you don’t, you can always manually launch the homepage with the keyboard shortcut Shift-Command-H.

Change Your Homepage in Google Chrome As with Safari, to change your homepage in first open the app. Next, click on “Chrome” in the menu bar in the upper-left, and then choose “Preferences.” When the Chrome preferences window appears, make sure you’re in “Settings,” as indicated by my arrow: Then if you’ve got “Open a specific page or set of pages” selected as I have, you can click on that “Set pages” option shown in the box to change which homepages (Chrome calls them “startup pages”) open when Chrome launches: Remove any unwanted startup pages by clicking the “x” to the right of the entry and then add your desired page or pages by entering the appropriate URL in the designated box. Click OK when you’re done to save your changes. Change Your Homepage in Firefox Finally, if you’ve noticed that your home page has been changed, the process is very similar to what we did for Safari and Chrome. Once Firefox is open, choose Firefox > Preferences from the menu bar at the top of the screen.

In the Firefox preferences, select General from the column on the left and then locate the “Home Page” box. Change the URL in this box to the address of your desired homepage and then close the Firefox window. Your new homepage will open the next time you launch the browser if you have Firefox configured to show it. Return address yahoo mail. And that’s it!

Run the excellent I linked to above, and then switch your homepage back to whatever you’d like. In the future, though, be careful where you get your downloads from; if at all possible, it’s safest to grab stuff from the or the manufacturer’s website!
