• Since the upgrade to the 32 version, firefox opens always old tabs at startup, even if I don't have this option value. Version 33.0.3 did the same thing.

  When I updated Firefox to version 32, he started to always show my tabs in the last session when it is started. I tried to change the "Startup of Firefox" option to all three of the available choices. None of them changed the behavior. It nevertheless opens the tabs that were open last. I waited for the next version (33.0.3), but the behavior is always the same. I would like Firefox to open my home page selected.
  I'm running Windows 7 Pro.

  One possibility is that Firefox hangs during shutdown, and so Firefox is recovering from an accident each time. But if you can see it stop normally in your tests, which probably isn't.

  Software sometimes external will create or update an optional parameters file named user.js. For some reason, one of the things that often turns in there is a preference to restore your previous session at once. However, because Firefox uses user.js to override your normal parameters, whenever it starts, which then turns into a permanent change. To check this and remove any file user.js, you find, try this technical support article: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  A little luck?

• Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar?

  Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

  If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• Session Restore does not work; Firefox opens 4 other tabs instead

  In general, Options, I chose to restore my windows and tabs from last time and set the homepage of Yahoo. It was like that for years. Yahoo is my homepage until I close the browser. From a month or two ago, whenever I close the session is not restored, or is Yahoo my home page more. Instead, open 4 tabs: Welcome to Firefox, Mozilla Firefox Start Page, an explanation of WOT (one of my extensions) and a new tab.

  The first time it happened, I went to the Options and those in general have changed - home page is set to Mozilla instead of Yahoo, and when FireFox starts now open the homepage instead of open my previous tabs. It doesn't matter if it's before a restart of Windows or if I just close the browser and reopen immediately.

  I read many others having problems with the system restore. only a solution has been found and his question was not the same mine - it must also make changes I'm not comfortable doing.

  Any ideas? Given I have spent an hour to research, and nobody don't seems to have solved this, I think that I can go to Chrome... not what I want to do, but it's not good.

  You can check for problems with preferences.

  Delete a possible user.js file and files numbered prefs-# .js and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox.

  Not sure, but about 2 days ago, when I started Firefox, my 2 standard tabs of Yahoo Mail and Facebook came but the first tab was 'Mozilla Support' as I join Firefox and I don't see any box anywhere to uncheck or check that says "don't show this again". Good info about it but I don't want to come whenever I start my laptop and bring up Firefox. How can I stop this tab from loading?

• Firefox opens a blank tab every time

  I put Firefox so that whenever I start it, it displays the tabs from last time. However, recently, he began with the tabs from last time, more an additional tab.

  The other day I installed three addons obliging all Firefox will be restarted and whenever she did, there was an additional tab so that the end of my session of addon, I got three extra not - ask for the tabs. Not a problem really, just an irritation that I want to stop. How can I stop this?

  Until recently, it didn't happen and I just got the tabs in my last session unless I had closed before closing Firefox. Even if I make sure that there is no new tab, not used before closing Firefox, I always get a new tab when I start again.

  Please update Firefox 20.0.1 first, then try Firefox updated to the latest version

• When I click on a link in an email, Firefox opens a new tab, BUT instead to use the new tab to go to the new page, it uses a tab for the new page.

  So if I'm not careful I eventually lose a page of the site I wanted to keep available, and I also have a new tab that does nothing about it.

  Hello

  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.
