Why does firefox browser shut down when I close the only open window? Used to be able to return to your homepage by closing a window.
I just installed windows 8.1 and am having trouble with the Firefox browser. I am using version 38.0.1. When I open a new window or tab, my homepage does not come up, but new browser window and the search window defaults to Yahoo search. Also when i have multiple tabs open and close the last open tab, it closes the browser. Used to be the best way to return to your homepage,.

A newly opened window opens with the home page(s).
- Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page

You may have had an extension that opens the home page in case you close the last open tab.
You can set browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
