How can I set the new tab to open like a blank page?

I tried "how to turn the page on the new tab off?" in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites

But still the new tab opens with (chrome://quick_start/content/index.html' "Quick start" and the words "Snap Deal" is already entered in the search bar.) See the capture screen.
I need a blank page displayed when a new tab is opened.

Unless this is possible, I spend my default browser.

Thanks for the reply jscher2000.
After posting the question, I uninstalled Firefox and then download new and installed. Still the problem remained.
After about 2 hours I still once uninstalled, downloaded again and installed.
This time it worked perfectly as before.
So, now I don't have the problem.
Thank you.

    Do you mean when you open a new tab, you want to see your regular home page instead of the page of the new integrated tab on Firefox?

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the "Restorer of classic theme" or "Tab Mix Plus" extension: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Use only one of these methods at the same time, otherwise there may be conflicts and dysfunctions.

    Setting up substitute new tab and new tab custom

    After installing one of these extensions, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab replace or custom new tab and click on the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    New tab Override

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

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

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Custom new tab

    It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See third screenshot attached). I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

  • How can I remove the 'new tab' that flashes always upward when I run Firefox?

    The new tab provides links to Twitter, Facebook, etc. I don't want this 'service '. This tab is slowing down the process for me - a total pain in the neck. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks a lot for this URL. In a previous thread, it was associated with a 'speed dial' or 'search dial' extension: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/990420

    The unwanted extensions are often installed at the level of the system as part of a bundle. So I suggest from here:

    Open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    Then, in Firefox, open the page of the modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    (1) in the left column, click on Plugins. If you find a plugin that you don't recognize or that seems unnecessary, try the configuration 'will never activate. (The essential Plugin is Shockwave Flash. You can use most of the sites without the others.)

    (2) in the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Finally, you can "absorb" remain problems with scanning/cleaning suggested in this article of support tools: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware.

  • How can I disable the new tab page?

    I followed 'the new tab page - view, hide...' answer and I cannot change the information in the box of ' subject: vacuum '. But when I click 'OK' the contents of the 'value' field in the 'browser.newtab.url' remains the same. In other words, he has not changed it to what I entered. Why?

    Probably an unwanted add-on is hijacking your new tab page.

  • How can I reset the new tab page? (Browser hijacking)

    My browser has been hijacked recently by Trovi search engine, and it changed the home page and the new tab page. I was able to restore the home page, but the new tab page was more complicated. I tried to go to about: config and replacing 'browser.newtab.url' 'about.newtab' (because I want the page with websites frequent return), but it just resets the site you'll find once I clicked OK. I tried editing that it again, this time with a URL, but it resets again. This continued even after restarting Firefox. Finally, I tried the add-on "SearchReset." He wiped my regular home page, but the new site of the tab is always you'll find... Whatever I do, it will not change. It keeps resetting to Trovi.

    You must remove the malware that Trovi hijacker.

  • set the new tab to open AGAIN homeVersion 43.0.1 breaks new tab homepage

    I don't know why the development team is so God awful ready on forcing me to use this terrible miniature of the previous pages as the new screen of the tab, but it SUCKS. I use FF because I don't want to be forced to use my browser as I want it to work. Correct this flaw and I would like to give the new tab homepage. 43.0.1 broke the new tab override add on which historically corrected this weakness / FF stock.

    Can I assume that your real problem is that the extension new tab replace does not work in Firefox 43?
    based on your similar thread in September - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1084993#answer-784907

    The developer of this add-on is aware that it is broken - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/reviews/769315/ - and says he'll fix it.

    "The nature of the lack of the new tab should be without a doubt, opening to what the user has defined for its home page".

    You are entitled to your opinion on that, but Mozilla feels differently about what the default should be for the new tab.

    My opinion [that does not count be] is that it would be ridiculous to have all of the users 'Homepage' to be the default value for the page tab. How would this work when a user like me has two home pages? Two new tabs open all the time? Or complicate the issue and only open the first home page for the new tab instead?

  • I can't get a new tab to open on an empty page

    I installed the new Strawberry override tab he cannot locate. How eo I find it?
    Thank you

    Changing the value of the string that I mentioned in my previous post, will change the page that appears in your new tab. The default value is about:newtab , but it can be changed to anything you want.

    To change the page to the new tab, follow these steps:

    1. Type of about:config in the location bar of Firefox and press enter
    2. Click accept in the page to enter configurations
    3. Locate the [email protected] string or search for it in the search bar on this page
    4. Double-click the string to change the value
    5. Enter the URL of the Web site that you want to use as a new tab in the dialog box that appears
    6. Press the ok button

    This should change the new tab page that appears when you open a new tab. If the changes do not affect, try restarting Firefox and then check again.

    If you want to use one of the pages by default Firefox as a new tab instead of a Web page, you can use about:newtab or about:home as the URL for the new tab.

    I hope this has clarified the steps for you. If you need additional information, please let us know.
