FF seems ot now open several windows on start up. Even on a new laptop. How can I change to just opeining my homepage?
A few weeks ago FF started to load several pages (tabs) at startup. I treid a lot to Pompeii and nothing is even on a new machine does. I'm sure it's a setting but after and + hours of research, I am obliged to migrate ot Chrome. Prefer to stay if there is a quick fix and I'm not sense enough to understand. Please advise...
It is best to open a new window with only this tab if you want to use the "Use current Page" (note that Firefox adds the ' pages if more than one tab is open).
Also, you should be able to drag a tab or the "Site Identity" (globe/lock) button on the address bar on the Home button to set this tab as homepage (you need to confirm this).

Yes, not much more to say. Since I've upgraded to firefox 5.0, I opened several windows. Several tabs to work, but I don't like tabs. Help, please.
See if they work in Mode safe mode, which is very easy to test Firefox 5.
Safe mode: to appear in safe mode, a time when you do not not tick the subjects (they are definitely not safe). Help ('Alt + H") >"restart with disabled modules. If there is no problem then it is almost certainly of an extension.
If it works, try to find the addon (s) causing the problem.
- Disable half of the extensions and restart Firefox. At this point, you are no longer using safe and test extensions.
- If the problem persists, disable half of the other extensions
If it does not work select last half of people disabled
Then restart. and check again at step 2.In case of failure to isolate the problem return answer and so resolute mark thread as resolved.

I try to open several windows on my desktop and am not able to do. To clarify: I can open internet explore and have several new tabs display and can change from tab to tab. What I can't do, is show more than one tab at a time. I found the bar downstairs which let me windows cascading, or tiles. I am just not able to have more than one window at a time. I was able to do this on Windows vista, but window8 is more confusing to me and I want it to be my friend and be able to do much more. Thank you

Hello
You need to open the websites that you want to display side by side or cascading in a new window, not a new tab.
You can only do this if you use the desktop version of IE.
1. open Internet Explorer by using the IE icon on the taskbar. Open a Web site in this window.
2. If you have a link to open a second site, right-click on the link and select open in a new window. If you do not have a connection, right-click the icon in the taskbar of IE and click on Internet Explorer and it will open a new window. You can type the address for the second site, or use Favorites to open the website of the second in this window.
3. Once you have the sites open in different windows on the screen, right-click on the taskbar and select Cascade Windows, show windows stacked, or show windows side by side.

How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.
Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html. I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).
Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html. Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something). Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path. Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder. That cannot be done in Vista. But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click
It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.
Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html. This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.
Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)
I hope this helps in your situation.
Good luck!

Hi, I have problems with my PC (Windows Vista) mothers. Margot opened the narrator and now it starts automatically when it restarts or logs and new. How can she stop it? I tried msconfig but can't find it. It is very annoying as Margot does not use it and need to close whenever it connects. I tried everything to stop it in the help files.
Thank you for your time, Kaye Young... :) -
