I don't want the new tab with apps opening when I open Firefox, how to fix this?
I want to just the home page to open without the new tab with a search bar on this issue.
Sometimes the home page changes are caused by a new extension or external software change your Firefox settings. These can sneak in when you install other software, as many free programs include a set of less useful things.
Could check you your extensions for the actions essential or unrecognized? Open the page modules using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off. Or if it's obviously nonsense, delete.
If the button Delete is absent for an extension, you can usually find a way to remove it using the Control Panel, uninstall a program (or all what is it called now to the point Windows 8.1). By clicking on the column heading to sort by date, "installed on" is useful to find and remove unknown elements not trustworthy bundle or other additions.
Once your system is clean, your preferred homepage appears, either immediately or after the update the setting in Options?

How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config
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 extension classic restaurateur theme: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.
- If you want to use your new tab homepage: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
- If you want to set another page or a completely blank page: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/
Setting up substitute again tab
After installing this extension, 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 override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).
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.
Success?
Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

I'm on firefox 41. When I select a new tab, I get displayed story. This has changed today. I don't know what I changed to create this problem. He has always displayed Google as my homepage with no history and no new proposed apps. How can I get that back to this point. Firefox deleting then reinstalling would resolve the issue.
Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use an add-on like tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.
Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.
Note, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.
You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

I can't get the new tab button to open a blank tab. Nothing happens when I click it.
I think that this problem started a few days ago, when Firefox automatically updated, but I'm not sure. All I know is that when I try to open a new tab by clicking the new tab, nothing happens. I have to do this a lot, so it's really frustrating.
Uninstall the Ask Toolbar. It can cause this problem. It may have been installed as an add-on 'ride-along' with 'free' software that you have installed and you do not uncheck the option to install it.

CTRL + t and go to the new tab does not open a new tab
Since this last Sunday, March 13, I not was able to open a new tab. I used to use ctrl + t and it would open a new tab. I also tried going to lead upward in the toolbar, and go to the new tab and is not no longer works. The only way I can get a new tab is to go to help in the toolbar and go to the troubleshooting Info. This opens up this tab, and I change for the address I need to go.
Help!
Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

Recently, I installed utorrent. The problem began after that. The homepage is Google, but by opening a new tab, I don't get the thumbnails appearing usually rather search.conduit page is open. How can I get my old settings back? I even uninstalled utorrent to see if the problem goes away, but it's not.
Looks like led/Utorrent amended your preference of browser.newtab.url . First of all, check your installed programs and Firefox extensions for a related Conduit material or a 'Utorrent browser bar '. Uninstall if found.
- In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
- Click on I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue on the subject: config page.
- Type browser.newtab.url in the search box
- Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and change the url to Subject: newtab
- Also search about: config for driving/Utorrent preferences. Search for pipes and Utorrent. If there is, then right-click and choose reset
I use Utorrent, but what can happen is that the Utorrent Installer installed also led. When you install programs, don't forget to read and not to go click happy.
