Firefox keeps opening Google in each new window. Earlier, I want the pages used instead.

Normally, I have a specific start page. From there I open 4-5 other pages in the same window. It was easy before the 25th of Firefox, as the preceding pages have been posted. With the new version, this possibility has disappeared and been replaced by a page of Google. I want to get rid of this page and get back the sooner the pages used to click on. If this is not possible, I would get a blank page.

Hello

I'm not aware of any changes made to the Home Page or the new tab Page in Firefox 25. Maybe it's something else caused the problem.

The new tab Page is the page that appears when you open a new tab in Firefox. By default, it should show a number of thumbnails of Web sites you have recently visited or pinned there. More info here:

Customize the page tab

This feature has not changed in Firefox v25. If you see a Google search page instead of the default new tab page then something is wrong.

You can reset the setting for the page tab by following these instructions:

  • In the URL bar, type about: config and press ENTER.
  • The subject: config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click on that I'll be careful, I promise! to keep the comments: config page.
  • In the search box, type "browser.newtab.url".
  • Click the browser.newtab.url preference, and then click Reset. He must then change back to the default which is ' on: newtab'.
  • Click OK and close all: config tab.

You can see that it works for a while, but ultimately the problem comes. I think it is likely that some malware is hijacking your browser and make changes to the settings. That's why the change was made in the first place without your permission.

You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

I also suggest you do the following:

  • a comprehensive analysis with your current antivirus software.
  • Watch your Firefox Add-ons and remove any that you install yourself - disable or remove modules
  • Look at your list of applications from Windows startup and disable anything you think might be related or suspicious look.
  • Look at your list of installed Windows applications and uninstall anything that you think might be related or suspicious look.

  • How to prevent the FF31 opening new window? I want to open all links in a new tab at the top of page.

    I think the following quote, below, for help on the page is my problem.

    I have a site that I use when I click on a link in the Web site it opens a new window with the tab down. In addition, when this happens, I lose the orange rectangle FireFox, bookmarks and navigation options. How can I define FF31 so that the link opens in a new tab, and I keep all my options? I use Classic theme restaurateur 1.2.3. I also note that, in the new window, I lose the ability to use some of the addons.

    I have two laptops and both are running FF31 and W7. One of them works perfectly and the other is having this problem. As far as I can tell they are both defined by the same. The only difference is that when I upgraded to FF31 they both had difference older versions of FireFox. I also read in the help forum that maybe I need to go back to FireFox 28 to accomplish what I am trying to accomplish.

    I noticed that when I'm going under: config that the version of FF that does not work unless options compared to the version that works. An example would be that the working version has 'browser.tabs.onTop' where, on the other computer laptop is missing.

    > > > open new windows in a new tab instead: this option controls whether links from other applications or from web pages which request to open them in a new window opens in a new window or a new tab in the most recent window.
    Note: If you have chosen to open pages in new tabs, Firefox will ignore this option and opens a new window from a link if the page author specified that the new window must have a specific size, because some pages cannot be displayed correctly to a specific size. < < <

    You can override how the links are opened through the browser.link.open_newwindow.override preference.

    Use it for links opened via JavaScript.

  • who was the last version to allow the opening links in a new window by default?

    Used to have the opportunity to set as default, when I clicked on a link, it would always open in a new window. I want to revert to this version... If it is supported or not! I HATE THE TABS!

    You can disable tabbed browsing in the options:

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > tabs

    Uncheck the boxes of the first and the fourth. This will restore the default behavior for links, which is:

    • If a 'target' is defined in the link, or launch a new window or replace the contents of the existing window with the same target.
    • If a script is triggered when you click on the link, leave the script to open a new window.
    • Otherwise, follow the link in the same window.
  • When I open a link in a new window does not display the web address.

    When I open a link in a new window does not display the web address. What have I done wrong? It used to work and it works if I open the link in a new tab, the problem is that I hate to use tabs prefer a new window every time... Help!

  • Suddenly today I can't open message in a new window, tabs ONLY

    I open normally send in a window with double-click. Today, it is not open. Menu popup 'open in a new window Message' also does nothing. Only way I can get an open message is menu item context "Message open in a new tab". 24.6.0 Windows 7 (64-bit) version.

    In the menu... Click on Tools / Options... then the "Advanced" icon, then the tab 'read & Display '. Under the section that says "open your messages to:" select "A new message window". I had this same problem and found that mine has been set at "a new tab". Now, I tried several times under different email accouts and it works fine. CTRL-W will do the same if you selected message, but I prefer my to open in a new window on double click. I use the preview to review pane, but if I intend to do something with the message, I prefer it in a new window. I hope this helps.

  • 10.11.2 and always open folders in a new window

    Hello.

    I hope someone can help me here.

    I am setting up a new system with 10.11.2 and have noticed something that is different from the previous version of the operating system I was using.

    Previously, there was an option in the Finder preferences 'always open folders in a new window', but that seems to have disappeared.  From what I can tell, does Apple now you hold down the command key when you open a folder to access this option.  And that is only the case if the new 'files opened in tabs instead of new windows.  The way that it used to be, is that if you hold the Option key, you could get the new folder to open in the window even IF the 'open in tabs instead of new windows files' has been enabled.

    I hope there is a way to do things, how they used to be, and how I like, where the default is to open new windows in a new window.  Or, if you wish, in order to maintain the Option key, then it would be open in the same window.

    Changes that have been made I guess there would be a terminal command any to tweak some things, but I don't know what would be this command.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I also checked the web and even called the local apple hotline - no one could help me. So, it seems we have to live with it. Me too miss me this function very well. The official of othe only option ist in a folder without all the bars (alt-cmd-T), then the file opens in a new window and generally too if the folder or a pseudonym is directly on the desktop. But for me it works nocth with the taskbar on top spaces, for example applications (so-called shift-cmd-A), it will be opened in a file that is already open.
