• Why my home page closes when I visit any web page

  Why my home page (Talktalk) does not close when I visit another web page?

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  Is months ago

  It should be the default setting that guess the frontpage is no longer necessary once you have started your next page. If you want to keep your frontpage to display after another page in navigation, you can use the mouse wheel button (the one central in mice) to leave the other page launch in another tab. And the first page will not be closed.

• Why force Windows Installer updates without my consent?

  * Bought a new computer, the other day. [Windows Home 7]
  * Set Windows Update to "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them".
  * When I turned my computer off, Windows began installing more than 50 updates automatically without my consent.
  I never had a message about the update ready to be installed. So clearly, I never said Windows to install updates.

  Why Windows force install Windows updates without my consent to the judgment?

  I've only visited a Web site, and it's a website that I trust. Would he still could be a Virus?

  If it's a Virus, restoring my system to factory Conditions removes the Virus? [By using the option available on my computer. Do not use a Windows CD. ]

  [1].. .a Norton free trial came with the computer (as it does with almost all computers), however, I did not accept the terms. Or fact, I install the program... Since I posted this question, I came back the computer back to factory settings...

  [2] FireFox. I use Internet Explorer to download Firefox. I disable access to IE that FireFox is installed

  [3] I use CCleaner to scan the registry from time to time. It is not something that happens too often.

  Fact: Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not to uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  A1. After you"returned the computer configuration", do you have a uninstall Norton free trialware AND THEN b download/run the Norton removal tool [1] & (c) reboot before installing the suite AVG (or any other antivirus application) AND BEFORE the installation of any Windows updates AND BEFORE you changed your setting again?

  A2. Nevertheless, Internet Explorer is part & parcel of your operating system. IE9 works correctly when you choose to use it (after re-enabling access to even)?

  A3. Comment: Your misguided use of registry cleaners may be (or may have been) plays a role here. TIP: If you ever think that your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, boosted, point, healed, twisted, fixed, magnified, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), read http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/archive/2005/10/02/registry-junk-a-windows-fact-of-life.aspx and draw your own conclusions.

• Why my home page is reloaded when I select the private tab?

  I opened Firefox menu to the right of the toolbar. Click on 'new private window' and it opens / reload my home page. I can br to a Web page, select 'new window private' & I get my home page. AND! There is no blue icon to indicate 'private window' help! Thank you!

  There is a feature to automatically start Firefox in private browsing mode. It is a stealth mode, where white-mask-on-purple-tab does not appear on the title bar next to reduce, restore/maximize and close to the buttons.

  To see if you have enabled, you can see the Options page, Privacy panel:

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > privacy

  If the selection is set on "Firefox will: don't remember history" then automatic private browsing is enabled. To disable, change the selector on "conservation rules: use the custom settings for history" and then uncheck the box for always use the private browsing mode.

• Home page changed 10, how to stop windows?

  My homepage is set to Google, but this page opens file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86) /Mozilla%20Firefox/ how to make back to my chosen homepage?

  Hello!
  Your desktop shortcut is maybe damaged. Here's how you can check that:

  • Shortcut on the desktop: right-click on the icon, choose Properties
  • Icon taskbar pinned: clic click right on the icon, right click in Mozilla Firefox, click on properties

  Windows normally selects the shortcut tab. If this is not the case, go ahead and click on the shortcut tab.
  The target line do not need anything after this part:
  Firefox 32-bit on Windows 64-bit: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe.
  Otherwise: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
  If nothing is listed after this, clear out and save your changes. To test, you can:

  • Shortcut on the desktop: double-click the icon to launch a new window
  • Icon taskbar pinned: right-click on the icon, click Mozilla Firefox to open a new window

  If you get a normal start or a new window showing your home page, the shortcut is back to normal.

  Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some preferences at each start of Firefox.

  The user.js file appears only if you or another software created, therefore, normally, he wouldn't be here.
  You can check its contents with a text editor if you do not create this file yourself.

  The user.js file is read whenever you launch Firefox and initializes the preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences that cannot be changed temporarily for the current session.

• Firefox 16.0.1 opens on a white page, even if my home page has been set as default

  I upgraded to 16, and now the browser opens with a new page, even if I set the default to my home page. I tried several times to reset the home page but without success.

  See:

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Error_loading_websites

  You can try to reset (power off / on) of the router.

  One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

  Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

• Home page does not say last FF, update page says that it is what to do?

  Under sarch bar on the home page, "warning!" you do not use the latest version of Firefox. Click here... for update now ". When I click, it takes me to the page of Firefox, which tells me that I am using the latest version! I've updated to FF.

  I bought my new Dell computer about 1 month ago, Windows OS 8.1. They installed Firefox it at the store.

  Everything seems to work fine, just bugged by the alert being there and do not understand why the home page says one thing and update page says another.

  It is indicative of a problem, or a bear just with her up to FF auto-updates to date again?

  I appreciate your help!  :)) ... Sackettwife

  Usually, you see this sort of thing as an attempt to scam or malware. Firefox updates only the help > about Firefox, and if it is up-to-date, there is nothing to worry about.
