When I open Firefox browser, as well as my homepage opening, a new tab also opens at the same time how can I stop this please?
This problem has only just started and I don't know why. When I click the Firefox icon to open the browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens up alongside my homepage tab. I have checked and the are no pipe characters in my homepage addres.
Chosen solution
This seems to be going around (e.g., Firefox opens my homepage AND a new tab on start-up - unsolved).
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled (Flash and other plugins still run)
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)
Any difference when using the Home button or opening a new window (Ctrl+n)?

I restarted Firefox in safe mode then reset it all and it has worked, thanks for the solution.
