When I click on a tab, it goes to the Yahoo home page. How can I change this back to the original setting?
The original configuration is a series of tiles that have shown my most visited websites. I want to return to this setting & don't know how to restore it.
You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the topic: config page and set this pref to your preferred the new tab page.
- the new default tab with the tiles page is on: newtab
- the default homepage is Subject: Home
- to a blank page, you can use Subject: vacuum
The pref browser.newtabpage.enabled must be set to true to use the page defined through browser.newtab.url like the new tab page.
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.
If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

Why is - a 'tab' settings now, how can I change this back?
Whenever I have try and clear the cache and click on Preferences it now opens a new tab, unlike a new window he used to. is possible to change this back? In addition, my firefox does not appear to be misspellings, even if the option is checked. Is there a way to fix this?
Hi, you can go back to the old window Options by: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.preferences.inContent and double-click on it to change the "value" from true to False, taking care to not to change what anyone else. You will then need to restart Firefox. Note however, that in later versions of this parameter can be removed.

When I middle - click the mouse on a tab, it will open another tab with a copy of this page. For example, when I go to Pogo.com on one of recent games here I've sometimes will use the middle button to reopen the page and check the status of a fault, if it has been activated and the extent of the progress made. Now when I click middle mouse on a tab it will close the tab and if only one tab is open out of the browser.
I currently use:
Windows XP SP3
Firefox 36.0.4I have also tried to go to safe mode with Firefox without a change in behavior.
Hi, you can copy a tab open pointing to reload the current page (right end of the address bar) by clicking the mouse wheel.
If you want the browser remains open when you close the last tab, type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab and double-click on it to change the 'value' of true to False.

For example: I could type 'facebook' in the address bar and it would automatically take me to facebook.com now he takes me to google.com and shows me the search results. I want that Firefox take me directly to the page as before I installed Firefox 4.
I hate this new feature. Here's how to disable if:
Come on in "subject: config" in the URL
type in 'keyword' in the filter bar
Locate the property "keyword.enabled.
Double click on it to make sure that the value is set to FALSEeventually Firefox will take you directly to a Web site when you type in, instead of doing a search for it. Know that, if the word that you type does not lead to a Web site live while you're not going nowhere.
To counter that, for example, if you want to go to Facebook.com , but don't want to change anything in the settings of Firefox, hold down the 'Ctrl' on Windows when you enter a URL. Which will automatically add the ".com" at the end of any word you typed in. Note that this adds only the ".com" and will not automatically recognize ".edu", ".gov", etc.
