Step 6: Close SlimBrowser and Open it Up Again

Close SlimBrowser and then open SlimBrowser up again. This is to make sure our settings are working. Since we set our homepage to our page on Homepage Ninja, we see our homepage when we open up the browser. This confirms that the homepage has been changed on your browser.
