How to delete bookmarks in the Yandex browser? Clear bookmarks bar

Method 1: Removing from the bookmarks bar

You can remove an unnecessary link directly from the bookmarks bar. To do this you will need:

launch Yandex browser;
find an unnecessary link in the panel and hover the cursor over it;
right-click on the link;
In the pop-up menu, select the line “ Delete ”.

After this, the bookmark will disappear from the panel.

Power Saving Mode

Using Yandex Browser allows you to have access to the Internet all the time. However, when using the program's functionality on mobile devices, you can use up the charge very quickly.

This problem has already been solved in the program. To work on laptops, tablets and smartphones, you can use the Energy Saving Mode, which saves battery power. Thanks to this, the work is extended by an hour.

This mode works as follows:

reduces page FPS;
reduces the functionality of background tabs;
disables animation running in the background;
uses a video card to play video recordings;
performs a number of additional functions that are responsible for optimizing energy consumption.

Activation of energy saving in Yandex occurs by default when the device is disconnected from the network connection.

Method 2. Removal during operation

You can determine that an open site in the Yandex browser has been added to the list of bookmarks while working with it. If there is a red flag in the command line of your web browser next to the address of the open page, then the page was once saved in your bookmarks folder.

If, while working with a site, it becomes clear that it is unlikely to be useful again, the link to it can be quickly removed from your favorites. To do this, you need to click on the flag image in the command line. The checkbox will change color from red to gray, indicating that the bookmark was successfully deleted.

You can add the site to your favorites again in the same way - by clicking on the checkbox.

Method 5: Delete a user profile

Another way to delete all bookmarks from the Yandex browser at once is to delete the user profile. This is a rather radical method. But it can be useful if the computer needs to be sent in for repairs, or given to a stranger for a while.

After deleting a profile, not only bookmark folders will be cleared, but also browser history, saved passwords and other traces of the user’s work on the network.

The procedure will be as follows:

open the browser menu by clicking on the icon with three horizontal lines;
select the “ Settings ” section;
Scroll the page that opens to the “ General settings ” section;
under the heading “ Users ” find a list of active profiles;
Click on the inscription “ Delete ” located next to the name of the desired user.

If necessary, the deleted user can be added again using the same section. If synchronization was enabled in your profile, then after adding an account, you will be able to download saved bookmarks from Yandex.

How to remove a bookmark from the Yandex browser start page

In Yandex browser, in addition to the Bookmark Manager, there is a visual panel on which links to the most frequently visited sites are saved. It is located on the start page of the web browser - Tableau.

If any links placed on the visual panel are no longer relevant or were added there by an advertising bot, they can be easily removed. To do this you need:

open the browser start page;
click on the “ Customize ” button located at the bottom of the window;
the tabs will become less bright and active buttons will appear on them;
Click on the cross on the tab you want to delete.

To delete another tab, the described steps will need to be repeated.

The bookmarks bar can be a very useful tool for browsing the web, as long as it is kept organized. In order not to get confused in the saved links, you should review them at least once a month and delete those that are no longer relevant.

Why clean them?

There is no need to clear saved links; this will not make your computer run faster. However, from a user experience point of view, cleaning is important as preferences and values change over time. For example, a once important link to a forum for solving a problem is no longer relevant. Why store it? Taking up space, it prevents you from finding other useful links. We recommend clearing unnecessary bookmarks in the Yandex browser only to simplify the search for useful elements.

Freeing your PC from tabs is not so much a useful procedure as a mandatory one. If there are a lot of open sites, the browser will start to work extremely slowly, like the entire system. Interfering sounds from advertisements and website notifications will appear. Cleaning in the browser should be done no less often than in the house. It's much easier to find everything you need in a clean browser. It’s better not to keep more than 10-20 tabs open. If there are a lot of sites with useful information that you don’t want to lose, you should use bookmarks.
