We discussed Yandex for macOS before and even did some benchmarks against 15 other web browsers. Now, we will be discussing Yandex Web Browser Windows version. The installation went smoothly with the ridiculously small installer file downloaded. Of course, there was another process going on in the installation process. But still, it was fast.

Read here to see which web browser is the best.

Yandex offers us to import the data from our previous web browser. Surprisingly, some of the extensions imported and logged in. How convenient!

Features

Secure browsing

Browse safely with Yandex Browser’s built-in comprehensive protection system that covers all bases safeguarding you from any possible security hazard, from viral threats and identity theft to DNS spoofing and annoying or malicious advertising.

Fast page loading

Speed up your page loading and save on your data charges with Yandex Browser’s data compression mode that switches on automatically each time your internet connection speed drops below a critical point.

Personalisation

Choose themes and backgrounds that match your style or current mood. Click to your favorite websites right from a color-coded quick-access panel always available in the new tab.

Sync

It also allows me to sync using my Yandex account which renders the importing part obsolete. I doubled my extensions after I’m done syncing. The first set was imported, and the second set was synced. Anyway, this makes my transition from macOS to Windows seamless.

Yandex Web browser Windows

Syncing also allows me to use Yandex disk, a cloud storage. This will be a good alternative to Google Drive since they will shutdown Drive for Windows and macOS soon.
