The latest version of Firefox recently installed on my PC. Now, no matter which way I set the home page it does not open to that. I simply get a blank tab. Yes, I have set the page correctly and even told Firefox to open to the home page. It does not work. It will accept the settings, and I have rebooted a few times too. When I click the home icon, it opens the page so I know it is set up correctly.

Deleted and re-installed FF. Opens with correct home page now. Thank you for all of your help. Something must have gone wrong with the initial upgrade.

You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release. You can get to the profile folder below:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Show Folder

or

  • Go to about:support and click Show Folder next to Profile Directory.

I deleted the prefs java script and restarted Firefox, but still came to the blank tab. No dice. The home tab still brings up Google, but FF will not start on that page.

Sorry, the home "icon" still brings up Google

Hmm, try to check what the pref is for browser.startup.homepage

  • Type about:config into Firefox like a website
  • Press the button that says I'll be careful, I promise! to continue
  • At the top, search for browser.startup.homepage
  • What does it say next to it?

If it has something other than your home page, right click it > Reset

Hi,

I see that you have two versions of Flash installed

  • Shockwave Flash 11.9 r900
  • Shockwave Flash 13.0.r0

This is not related but it's just something that could become problematic in the future.


Can you send me your troubleshooting information from the Firefox installation that's having issues? This is a good part in troubleshooting.

  • Navigate to about:support via Address Bar
  • Click the button that says Copy text to clipboard
  • Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.

I also just updated to the most recent shockwave player. Not sure how to get rid of the old one. I figured that would be part of the upgrade?

Try to reset Firefox. This'll save all of your bookmarks, passwords ,etc but will wipe out your Extensions. Please make a list of these.

he Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.

  • Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.

To Reset Firefox do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.
