    use the .Navigate2 method of the web browser control.

    So what WebBrowser control are you using? I doubt you plan to create your own html parser and everything.
    Currently using VS 2015 Enterprise on Win10 Enterprise x64.

    HUH?! That smoke you are smelling is from my fried brain.... you've said you created a webbrowser, but you've never created one before. That doesn't make sense.... perhaps if you start over, tell us what you have, and what you are trying to do....

    I have created a web browser with a menustrip where you can add a new tab and delete tabs

    and you know i have Back/refresh/home/go/stop and all other buttons

    but anyways i wanna make a new tab or whatever in the menustrip and there i wanna have a text that says "the creators homepage" or whatever and that you can click on it and you will come to my homepage..

    okay... so you are using the webbrowser control, then right? How else are you displaying the web sites in the other tabs?

    It's the same thing.... button is clicked, a new tab is added, and you set the address of the webbrowser control to the address where you want it to go to.
