What are the current startup settings?

The startup page is set via browser.startup.homepage and possibly browser.startup.page

Note that the classic about:home and about:newtab pages will be removed in future Firefox versions (60+0 and only the Activity Stream page is available for the home page and the new tab page.

For the home page you can disable the Activity Stream design by setting this pref to false on the about:config page.

  • browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.aboutHome.enabled = false
  • mozilla.cfg: lockPref("browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.aboutHome.enabled", false);

Did you save your homepage that you wanted in FF Options? That is where you would set your homepage to sites you want or another site.

Do you already have a mozilla.cfg file??? I'm not sure why you need to go to that extent to fix your home page.
