when i open the browser, it is populating with the tabs that i closed it with. in tools/options it clearly says to use show my home page when Firefox opens

i uninstalled and reinstalled, and it is so creepy that the newly installed version still had my home page string of about 6 tabs in the home screen, yet it still opens to the last used tabs

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.

Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.

The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there. You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.

The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
