How do I get rid of the multiple tabs that load with Internet Explorer7?

Question

Hi All
I have 2 tabs that load when I use IE7. How do I get rid of the second one and keep it from loading at all? I right click on it and it closes but when I go on again it's back. I have Yahoo for my homepage. Thanks!!

Answer 1

I had three tabs that loaded with IE7. Here is what I did to remove two of the tabs. Open "Tools", open "Internet Options", where you see "home page, delete everything that is typed into the home page.

Now retype: http:/www.yahoo.com

Then double click on "apply" and close with "ok"

Now I have only one tab. Hope works for you.

Go to Internet Options and then where you see Home Page, edit that and re-enter the homepage you had before or change it. Make sure you dont press enter which will cause to go to the next line and this will cause IE7 to open 2 tabs when you open it. Instead just click on the OK button.

I had the same problem and I decided to fiddled about with it and found out it was this.

Answer 3

Hey there,

In IE7 You should see a House looking Icon, this is your home page, click the DOWN arrow and go in there and either remove them or edit them to where you only have ONE tab.

Might try under Add or Change Home Page...

Answer 4

Hi there. IE is very annoying. Try checking out the internet options by going to "tools->internet options". There should be a tabs settings option. Maybe you'll find some luck there.

Answer 5

When you click the second tab, there should be a (x) button next to it, to make it stop loading I usually click the (x) button next to it, or click the stop button first before/while it loads and cancel.
