cannot display the thumbnails tab or to get rid of the page "you have opened a new tab".

I get this(see pic) when I open a new tab, I solved this problem before, but I forgot how I did the last time.
I tried clicking on the "don't show me this page again.
What is a crunch the words more near getter.
tried the zoom out without result
then I tried to go into everything: config and permutation of the browser.newtab.url in about: newtab just to see that it was still defined as about: newtab.
How can I get rid of that? Unable to see thumbnails is kind of annoying.

I never have this page soon. Looks like a malicious extension for me.

Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button

    click Help

    then select restart with disabled modules.

If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.
