How can I get rid of the 'Options' tab being opened with each web page?

I recently upgraded to Firefox and now everytime I open a new tab, the tab 'Options' is on the screen, which means that I will open two tabs every time. Cannot correct this condition. Cannot find the window showing in Firefox to deal with "tabs". Running Windows 7, 32 bit, did not have this problem before the update.

One of the possible reasons are that if the Options page has been added as a second 'Home tab' in which case it will be displayed in each new window (Ctrl + n) and every time that you click the Home button.

To check that you can go to the Options page and select general in the left column. To the top of the page, in the start section, check the box of the Home Page:

Looking for a vertical bar separating two addresses of character. A simple example with short URLS:

https://www.mozilla.org/|about:preferences

The bar certainly can be hard to spot with long URLs, but when you find it, delete everything to the right of the bar, then the bar itself (I suggest to remove the last bar so things don't accidentally get it together).

Was she?

For reference, our article on this part of the Options page: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings.

  • 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

    (C) If extensions.superstart.set.browser.newtab.url preference is false, double-click on it to change for real

    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.

  • How can I get rid of the automatic tab? Have NEVER used this feature and don't like it because it reduces the size of the window.

    To remove the automatic tab of firefox 23

    Hello

    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the firefox options define and protect users against unintentially damage their Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar has been removed.

    Fortunately, this can easily be solved if you want the tabs to keep hidden. You can install "hide the tab with a tab bar", an extension hosted on the site of Mozilla Add - ons, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.

    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How can I get rid of the right scrollbar being all the time?

    Using Firefox on Windows 8, a Web page that contains a frame that has a long text that it displays a white scroll bar. The same page does not display the scroll bar when using Firefox on Mac. I tried a number of things inclucing enter topic: config before turning off the always show scrollbars entry but nothing seems to work. In other browsers I've tested no scroll bar is still present on this Web page. Does anyone know of a way I can have this scroll bar does not appear except when the text is scrolled? Thanks in advance.

    Two thoughts:

    (1) later or maybe the last two versions of Mac OS X have a feature at the level of the system that fades the scroll bars if you don't use them and then show them while you are scrolling, or something in that sense. We had complaints about it here from time to time.

    (2) Firefox does not allow to color scrollbars, as some other browsers for other browsers may have a transparent bar that corresponds to the background, but Firefox will use the default color and widgets associated with your theme, regardless of what tells the site.

    Any other browser on Windows also shows a scroll bar (attached screenshot).
