• When I open a new tab, I get a search result 'AVG '. I already made the topic: config reset but it still doesn't work. How can I get a blank tab open?

  When I open a new tab, it always comes to the top:

  I already made the topic: config reset and it does not have the new blank tab or go to a specific URL I type in address. What can I do to get a new empty tab? Thank you.

  Change the browser.newtab.url preference, or it is ignored?

  If it changes after you exit and then restart Firefox, look for a user.js file, as described in this article: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  If it is ignored, are looking for an extension that is unwanted in the Add-ons page:

  CTRL + SHIFT + a button orange Firefox (or tools) > Add-ons

  On the left side, click Extensions, and then disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions.

  Typically, 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.

  Any improvement?
