Hello everyone. It means that Yandex Elements appeared on my computer, I don’t remember where they came from, but apparently from where it came from. In general, this is all software from Yandex, it’s not so bad, no, but it’s just often put somehow so quietly, well, I don’t even know how it got to my computer. Most likely when installing some kind of program. But if I installed, then there would be no such situation!
So what is it, these Yandex Elements? This is a browser extension Internet explorer and whose main task is to facilitate the use of the Yandex search engine and its services. Well what can I say, Yandex is moving forward, what can I say. However, the panel is really cool, it is directly embedded in Internet Explorer - it adds the Yandex logo in front of the address bar, puts its buttons, in general, you will not say anything, it's cool! But does everyone need it? The question is not simple ...
Here's what the panel looks like:
You see, here in front of the line, where is the site address, there is a company logo, but in fact it is also a button! If you click it, then you will go to the Yandex search engine. And hereafter, after address bar, there are all kinds of buttons, and so it’s access to mail, viewing the weather, access to Yandex disk, VKontakte and Yandex Video! That is, everything is at hand! But true internet browser Explorer doesn't use a lot of people ...
Now look, if you click on the gear in the upper right corner of the browser, a menu will appear, in it select Browser properties\u003e Programs tab\u003e Manage add-ons\u003e and you will see that Yandex Elements are these add-ons:
You see, the publisher is YANDEX LLC, such an interesting name. Just in case, I’ll write that this is all in the Toolbars and Extensions section. By the way, what is interesting is that it even says how many seconds it took to start! That is, in principle, you can try to disable them there, just click on the panel and then the Disable button will be at the bottom. I checked, it works, there you can immediately check the box so that the Visual Bookmarks panel is turned off.
But I think it’s better to remove it in the usual way, and now I will show how. So, open the Start menu and select the Control Panel there:
And if you have Windows 10, then this is good, but there this item is in the menu, which is called by the Win + X buttons! Well, just in case!
Then among the icons we find Programs and components, run it:
In the software list, down there somewhere there will be something like Yandex Elements. Here I have version 8.16 for Internet Explorer, and you may have a different version and maybe even for a different browser .. So, right-click on the items and select Delete:
The program will be deleted in exactly a couple of seconds:
And then a page on the Internet opens, where they will ask you why you deleted these Yandex Elements:
You can answer or just close the page, it's all a trifle! But you don’t think that they don’t read all this, no, they read, they have a special department for analyzing user reviews about a particular product (he invented it himself, I admit).
Well, guys, it seems to have told you everything, I hope that everything was clear and I at least helped you with something. Now it remains only to wish you good luck and that everything was fine with you
31.07.2016Hello. I don’t know about you, but it’s hard for me to imagine my Internet browser without Yandex Elements. Suppose that they do not belong to functions that cannot be dispensed with, but you must agree - Yandex elements make our stay on the Internet more comfortable. Visual bookmarksquotes fast access to social networks and mail, weather forecasts, road conditions save time and simplify life.
In general, I need them and tchk. So - taking up the planned reinstalling windows 7, I downloaded the latest drivers for PC, video codecs, new versions of my favorite programs, installed Yandex.Browser and latest version Mozilla firefox. Immediately launched Firefox with the goal of installing Yandex Elements, but the trouble is by going to the office. site of elements and habitually clicking on the "install" button, I received a connection error and reset the installation.
I checked the connection, tried it a couple more times - Yandex elements for Mozilla Firefox are not installed, even though it’s cracked, it didn’t last long, I remembered how to solve this problem ...
Why Yandex Elements are not installed
for Firefox and how to install.
Honestly - why the extension of Yandex elements in firefox was not installed in the usual way today, with the wording - “the add-on cannot be downloaded due to a connection error with element.yandex”, I was too lazy to delve into, because the installation method shown below worked the first time, that's all earned and I lost interest in graters of developers.
So, how to get around the error and install Yandex Elements for Mozilla Firefox. We open the official page - YandexElement , the browser should be detected automatically and you will see “Set” above the button useful extensions for Mozilla Firefox. " Right-click on the "Install" button, in the menu that opens, select - "Save object as ...".
In the explorer window that opens, specify the folder (the one that is easy for you to find, the working one that you use for downloads), remember the name of the downloaded file, Yandex elements - YandexElement.xpi. We look up, in the browser menu click on “Tools”, in the pop-up submenu click on “Add-ons”.
In the add-ons window, select “Get Add-ons”, find the gear in the upper right corner, if you hover over the mouse, the tool tip “Tools for all add-ons” will pop up, left-click, select “Install add-on from file” in the submenu.
In the explorer that opens, find the folder with the saved Yandex Elements for Firefox, select "YandexElement.xpi", click open. A standard warning window will appear asking you to install add-ons from "honest authors", we’re fine with that - we downloaded the extension from official page Yashki, click - "Install now."
The browser will think for a bit, ask for a reboot, Yandex clever add-ons are installed, configure and use your health.
P.S.
The extension settings are located at the following address - the menu button "Tools" → "Add-ons" → "Extensions", select the line with the corresponding addition, click "Settings". A window opens with the settings of useful buttons and extensions.
Today, the browser, whether it’s Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Opera, has already gone beyond a simple Internet browser, now it is already a whole interactive machine. Although you could find out different information about traffic jams, the weather in your city and much more, but each time you had to jump on sites for a long time. Now there are add-ons for browsers that themselves monitor useful information and provide it in the form of a simple but very informative panel.
Perhaps the most best program of these, these are Yandex Elements, which was previously called Yandex.Bar. Given software distributed free of charge in the form of settings for the browser by the company of the same name and is suitable for such operating systemslike Windows XP and above, Linux and Mac OS. Unlike analogues, elements do not take up space in the robots field of your browser, but automatically hide and appear as needed. In addition, the external interface can be customized to your taste.The list of features provided to you:
- "Smart line" search engine.
- Yandex.Music, which allows you to listen to songs at the click of a button.
- The ability to find out the weather in your city.
- A traffic jam map of your or any other city.
- Keyboard shortcuts to many social networks.
- Status Notifications email (how many unread letters) and others.
For Internet Explorer, the situation is different. You will have to download and install the necessary functionality separately, like regular programs.
