How can I get rid of Startnow?

Start again now my Firefox a few weeks back. I managed to uninstall the toolbar as well as give my homepage, but now everytime I open a new tab he directs me to the Startnow search engine. How can I remove this? Thank you!!

There is a setting for new tabs. Have you already tried that?

(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

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

Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

Your "more details of the system" shows a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). Firefox will use the settings in this file to replace your preferences the next time you start, so you can remove it. This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

A little luck?

    Hi, Firefox is able to open multiple home pages with the URL separated by a "pipe" (|), so please see - How to set the home pageand in "Home Page", make sure that in addition to the URL of your home page (the Firefox start page is Subject: House but you can have another, or the page new tab, which is on) (: newtab) he has nothing else - if that's the case, just delete it.

    If it's easier, you can just click Restore default instead.

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

  • How can I get rid of the new tab

    I like the way I was put in place, and all of a sudden it is changed without asking me for it. My home page has been Super Start and when I opened a new tab it says Super Start and it was my home page. Now, it says new tab and my home page is a bunch of GREAT photos of my favorites, and when I remove some that it continues just appeared with more. I'm not so how can I get rid of him?

    Oh, OK, I forgot SuperStart.

    If you are not already using the extension Classic theme restaurateur, please ignore this.

    To get the SuperStart on your new tab page, users post comments on his page have suggested a few different approaches:

    (1) set extensions.superstart.set.browser.newtab.url true -if you are not familiar with using about: config, here's how:

    (A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (B) in the search above the list box, type or paste super and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    Then quit Firefox and start it up again (according to critics).

    (2) use the extension new tab override the value: superstart

    I have already mentioned earlier, this option, but it would be rather on: newtab on the extension Options page.
