  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
  • Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  Hi Tansy,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I understand how it could be frustrating when things do not work as expected. Please, I beg you, don't worry I'll try my best to resolve the issue.

  I understand that you want to disable the open Internet Explorer at startup option.

  Method 1
  Step 1: I suggest to start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

  Startup options (including safe mode)

  Step 2: If the problem is solved in SafeMode with networking, then I suggest to perform clean boot and remove the program that is causing the problem.

  Note: Follow step 3 of section of boot KB929135 to reset the computer in normal mode.

  Method 2
  I suggest you run virus scan online by using the Microsoft safety scanner.

• Firefox always opens at 120%. How can I change this permanently?

  When I open Firefox, the zoom is still at 120%. How can I change this permanently?

  Hi, try to change the zoom level (Ctrl and + key, or Ctrl and - key). - The font size and zoom - increase the size of the web pages.

  Note: It is possible that your NoSquint extension is changing the default operation, if so, either turn it off, or look at settings - modules Manager Ctrl + Shift + A.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. How can I stop this?

  When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?

  Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).

  I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.

  Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.

  Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.

I read the advice of the forum but not found or overlooked the answer. I checked all my other settings and can't find anything that could be the cause. Please advise?

  The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
  Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions, open Web sites and preferences.

  To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
  2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

  Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

  How can I stop this from happening?

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

• When I opened iMovie automatically opens to the last played film instead of asking me what I want to do.  .  How can I stop this?

  When I opened iMovie automatically opens to the last played film instead of asking me what I want to do.  I then shut down the film before I was presented with the opportunity to create a new project.  How can I stop this waste of time boring?  I use the old iMovie HD 6.0.4 because I find that it is superior to the new versions.  IMac 27 "2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

  This has always been a 'feature' of iMovie 6!

  The only solution I know is to move the project current iMovie to another folder, which is in documents, for example, where iMovie can't see it.

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.
