Hi,

If you are using Internet Explorer then follow the instruction bellow to rectify it.

Open Internet Explorer and click on the Tools tab on the top right hand side, then click on Internet options.
In the general tab you see what your home page should be. Highlight the web address and then type in http://www.msn.com. Click on Apply and then OK.

To see if it's worked all you have to do click on the home button at the top.


Regards.

My home page will not come up. Have used MSN.com and I can no longer get to it

Open Internet Explorer
On the extreme top of the page you will get options like :File>Edit>View>Favourites>Tools and Help
if you are not getting it .. just tap the "ALT" key on the keyboard
now go to the "TOOLS" option
the go to "Internet Options"
under the General tab you will get Home page..
under which there would be "Address:" and a blank box
just type msn.com and then click on "Apply" on the bottom and then on "ok"
now close everything and open internet explorer again
it should work
All The Best!!!

Dell v14 msn homepage stopped working and not sure why msn link broken

I guess you lost your Home Page link to MSN, right? If so, use your browser--probably MS Internet Explorer--to go to www.my.msn.com and sign in.

From the MS IE top menu bar, select Tools, then Internet Options. In the General tab you will see Home Page on top and your home page address should be in the Address line. Click Use Current.

Your home page should be restored.

I can not seem to connect to msn.com. I can

Couple of things to check. Make sure you software firewall has not been accidentally set to block this site. If you are using an Antivirus program you will find advanced firewall settings in the configuration section.

Secondly, click Tools on the top Menu bar in Internet Explorer, and then choose Internet Options. Re-enter MSN as your homepage and click OK, in the event the URL has been changed from your original page.

Hope this helps.

Bought asus laptop. try to go to msn.com, gives address of http//:asus.usv14.msn.com/ then says link is broken. how do i get asus outof this and get to msn.com

Hi:
If you type in the entire address, www.msn.com then press enter, you should go there. Once you are there, you can click on the little down arrow near the picture of a house on your tool bar, and change your home page to the current page, and you should be good to go.
