Cannot set the URL to the new tab from windows 10 update?

With windows 7 I had edited the subject: config so that when open a new tab it always open a page of google. Since I updated to windows 10 it now only shows top sites, even if the subject: the configuration file shows that he has set to open google. I even reset it and re-entered the url, but it did not work. Does anybody know a solution for this?

In Firefox pref browser.newtab.url 41 disappeared. This pref was taken hostage by malware too frequently for Mozilla decided to remove this pref to eliminate this kind of diversion.
You will need an extension like this one to restore.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

Or to have your home page as the new tab page, try this extension.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

If you're using Classic theme restaurant, go to the options of CTR > general UI (2) and set your preference for the new tab URL there.

  • Cannot change the new tab

    My new tab of the page was created in google for a year. Now, it suddenly started the default page, despite the fact that it is set on google about opening: config. I reset and rebooted, and still, it opens by default.

    Thank you

    Do you mean when you open a new tab, you want to see your regular home page instead of the page of the new integrated tab on Firefox?

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the "Restorer of classic theme" or "Tab Mix Plus" extension: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Use only one of these methods at the same time, otherwise there may be conflicts and dysfunctions.

    Setting up substitute new tab and new tab custom

    After installing one of these extensions, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab replace or custom new tab and click on the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    New tab Override

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Custom new tab

    It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See third screenshot attached). I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

  • set the new tab to open AGAIN homeVersion 43.0.1 breaks new tab homepage

    I don't know why the development team is so God awful ready on forcing me to use this terrible miniature of the previous pages as the new screen of the tab, but it SUCKS. I use FF because I don't want to be forced to use my browser as I want it to work. Correct this flaw and I would like to give the new tab homepage. 43.0.1 broke the new tab override add on which historically corrected this weakness / FF stock.

    Can I assume that your real problem is that the extension new tab replace does not work in Firefox 43?
    based on your similar thread in September - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1084993#answer-784907

    The developer of this add-on is aware that it is broken - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/reviews/769315/ - and says he'll fix it.

    "The nature of the lack of the new tab should be without a doubt, opening to what the user has defined for its home page".

    You are entitled to your opinion on that, but Mozilla feels differently about what the default should be for the new tab.

    My opinion [that does not count be] is that it would be ridiculous to have all of the users 'Homepage' to be the default value for the page tab. How would this work when a user like me has two home pages? Two new tabs open all the time? Or complicate the issue and only open the first home page for the new tab instead?

  • How can I set the new tab to open like a blank page?

    I tried "how to turn the page on the new tab off?" in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites

    But still the new tab opens with (chrome://quick_start/content/index.html' "Quick start" and the words "Snap Deal" is already entered in the search bar.) See the capture screen.
    I need a blank page displayed when a new tab is opened.

    Unless this is possible, I spend my default browser.

    Thanks for the reply jscher2000.
    After posting the question, I uninstalled Firefox and then download new and installed. Still the problem remained.
    After about 2 hours I still once uninstalled, downloaded again and installed.
    This time it worked perfectly as before.
    So, now I don't have the problem.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot open the new tab page

    By pressing Ctrl + t or by clicking the new tab button have no effect. I opened on: config, sought to "newtab", then reset all default: all to nothing does not.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    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. It might help others who have the same problem.

  • Cannot sync the new songs from IPod after transfer library external HD

    A few days ago, I consolidated my library on my external HD to clear a space on my PC (Surface Pro 3). Then, yesterday, I downloaded a new album and even though my iPod shows on ITunes it has not added the new album.

    Music sync is unchecked, but I don't want to lose what is now on my IPod to Sync music. I tried to do the thing "Choose library", but when I click on the ITunes Media folder on my external hard drive it opens just the folder. It won't let me set it as my library.

    Any suggestions on what to do?

    Sound like you may not be having the media on external rather than the entire library. If so the shift Start iTunes, use the option create and make a new iTunes library called iTunes at the root of the drive, move your media folder in the iTunes folder and then add content to the library. See make a library of portable split for some information on the Organization of the library.

    See also recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device. You may be able to recover ratings and playlists to the device.

  • Cannot set the search index location Windows 7

    After you perform a partition merge, I discovered that I can't set the Windows 7 search index location.

    What seems to happen is that the "disappearance" of the partition where the search index had been stored caused Windows to 'lose' the location of the index. What I mean is that the dialog box that usually shows the index location and where it would normally go on the definition of a new location, is empty.
    The option "select new" is grayed out, and it is not possible to start the indexing service - probably because there is no index. Following the steps of troubling shooting is no help either (because he fails to step to start the indexing service).
    Any ideas? I hope that someone will know what registry entry, I can set up or change. I watch but couldn't find anything that seemed relevant and did not want to change whatever it is based on the work of the conjecture.
