Why is there a second (new) tab, you can not delete after update to 6.02?

I am running Windows XP. After updating to Firefox6.02 a second tab was there after my 'Google' default tag. The second tab contains the words "New Tab" on this issue, and when you click the 'X' button in the tab, it does not close. When you go to for closing of Firefox a warning window/box will appear to tell you that you have 2 tabs open and asks if it's ok to close. I thought that there is a problem with the update. So I uninstalled Firefox and then re-installed. Same thing happened, 2 tablets. Any ideas?

It is possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

Delete the sessionstore.js file [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

If you see files sessionstore-# .js with a number in the left part of the name as sessionstore - 1.js then delete those as well.
Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and tab groups and opened and closed the tabs (back) to get lost, so you will need to create them again (take note or bookmarks).

  • I updated FF to 15.0.1; now there is no new tabs boxes, and I can't remove a tab with scroll wheel.

    I use Windows XP.
    Then, he used to be a small square next to the last tab box open that I could click to open a new tab. Now, I can just open a new tab if I double click on a space empty next to the last open tab.
    And I used to be able to open a group of tabs, to do what I had to do and then click Center mouse scroll to the bottom of the line to delete what I have is no longer necessary. Now, the only way I can close tabs is to use the x on the right side of the tab I'm currently. But, sometimes it does not work...
    Nothing has changed about how I put FF in place - just the update.

    You can open a new tab with Ctrl-t. You should be able to find the new tab button in the Customize window toolbar. You can replace it. If the Middle-click to remove is no longer a tab, you can use Ctrl-left click.

  • Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my entry from google line.please help.tks

    Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my google input line. I use Windows 10. Until the recent update (v4.1.01) each time I started a new tab the new page would show the google search entry line which is my default. Can help you to restore this feature? TKS

    Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use the add-on 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.

    Notice, 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.

  • Why you can not move the address bar to FF 29.1 and put in place if you wish?

    I hate this version of FF sucks, my set up disappeared (it took forever to put upward the way I liked it and it's just been eliminated in a single update what horror) and I tried to put it was, but it seems that you can not. I love FF in black including my menu bookmark I have poor eyesight and it is much easier to read, FF is black OK, but I can't get the bookmark, menu has changed the way that it used to be. Also can you change the LEGS down. You also don't seem to be able to move the address bar it's stuck on the right side of the page to the most ridiculous place, it might be. I appreciate if anyone has any ideas that could help me I'd love to hear from you, Bravo and thank you for taking the time to read my problems. I hope 30 FF will improve or it will be IE and not more FF.
