    In the same way as you would in any other version of IE .....

    Open IE

    Log onto Google.com

    Tools > Internet Options - General tab

    Home Page - Use Current and you're done :)

    If you're not seeing the Menu bar right click on a blank area to the right of the tabs and check Menu Bar.

    Thanks Pete,

    The tip about right-clicking the tool bar to get Tools, plus opening directly to Google, without opening IE 10 first, did the trick. If I open IE 10 first, then go to Google, it doesn't work.

    You're welcome :)

    I use Windows 8 like Windows 7 using Start8 - the Metro screen is buried! - that may explain the difference.
