Resetting your Internet Explorer Homepage

Sometimes, through no fault of your own, a website will reset your homepage to somewhere other than your chosen homepage.  This example will assume that your homepage here at school is http://www.lindenhall.org/students, but you can use this procedure to set your homepage to whatever you desire.

 

 

First, open up your Internet Explorer and browse to the page you want as your homepage.  Here at school we recommend http://www.lindenhall.org/students for students and http://www.lindenhall.org/teachers for faculty and staff.
 
Then go to Tools > Internet Options.
 
Click on the "Use Current" button and then on "OK" at the bottom of the window.
 
Close Internet Explorer and re-open it to make sure that your home page has been reset. Sometimes worms or viruses can cause problems deeper in your system, and this fix won't work.  In that case, please submit a Help Form and let us know that you have tried this already.
