win10 64 bit 20h2 ver. now it is 22h2
ok i posted about having a house fire and now staying in the hampton inns. and i reset the internet to public. we can't do the phones as now we are out of data and my have to increase that soon. but i have a pc that had win10 on and didn't use for a few years and so i started it up today and it came up with win11 is ready to install and it did but now for some reason when i click the the plus on the right of the top bar where the tabs show up it goes to yahoo for there home page. i have yahoo set to open for my mail everytime i open the chrome browser i never had that before and it did not do this when win10 was on it a few hours ago.

ok i guess i knew that but what i was after was when i tap the + to open a tab a blank page opens. now it opens yahoo. but i will give that a try that may be what i did the last time and just forgot. we had our house burn down and this pc was a older win11 ready setting in a lower cabinet that did not get water and smoke so i revived it. again thanks

Don't use the + button, wheel-click or Ctr/Shift click the about:blank Bookmark I demonstrated.

Alternatively, use an extension such as "Empty New Tab Page".

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
when i tap the + again
... you'll get what the browser wants you to get, not what you want (irrespective of Start page or Home page setup to about:blank)

Don't use the +

Open the browser at about:blank and create a bookmark to this page. It will appear in the bookmark toolbar. Now every time you want to open a blank page, right-click the bookmark > Open in a new tab/window
