1. Open Registry Editor. To do this, type regedit in Start menu search box and hit enter. Click Yes if you are prompted with UAC (User Account Control) box.

2. In the Registry Editor, navigate to the following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\InternetE xplorer\TabbedBrowsing\NewTabPage

3. In the right page, right-click and create a new DWORD value and rename it as NumRows and then set its value to 3, 4 or 5. For instance, set the value to 3 to see 3 rows (total 15 websites).
