On a HP Pavillon g6, how can I return to the first home page that I was on when I opened it for the first time. Now I am on my windows desktop. I went on it by accident.

Welcome @alex0001, 

 

You have come to the right place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! You had mentioned that you would like to return to the home screen that you had seen when you first opened the Notebook. I believe that the below image is what you are looking to enable again:

To enable this screen again please follow these steps: 

  • Swipe-in from the right edge of the screen
  • Click All settings
  • Click Personalization
  • Move the toggle to use full-screen Start when in the desktop

If that is not correct, please re-post with a little more detail, your Model Number (How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?) and Which Windows Operating Systems you are running so that I can assist you better. 

 

If this reply resolves your issue, please share the good news! Let others know this reply was helpful by clicking the Accept as Solution button at the bottom of this post.

If by "home screen" you mean the very first screen you see when you first setup the PC, I don't believe you can, because once that is done, your PC is configured for use.

 

So, WHY to you feel you need to go back to that screen?

 

IF it's to change some settings, we can probably help with that.
