After installing the newest update, when I try to open a saved page Firefox only opens the homepage. Reset didn't help.

I am a web designer. I have saved pages that I update and upload to websites all the time. Now, after the latest updates, when I try to open these saved pages it only opens Firefox and loads the homepage. The saved page does not open. If I'm to keep using Firefox, which I would prefer, I need this functionality back.

Are using File > Open File ... [ or { Ctrl + O } from the keyboard ] to open those saved web pages, from within Firefox?

Or if the problem is that your previous session windows and tabs are not being restored, unfortunately, Firefox has a short memory and only the immediately previous session is available to be restored. You might be able to get an old session back by rummaging around for old session history files. We've had a couple of recent threads on that which you can peruse, or if this is what you need, please ask for updated/specific help.

Sorry for delay. I was away from the office. What I'm doing is right clicking on the saved webpage and selecting open with Firefox. Firefox will open but to my homepage not the page I'm trying to open. Never had this problem until the update.

Try to redo the default browser setting and temporarily set another browser as the default browser.

Didn't help. I changed default to Chrome. Closed both browsers. Chrome opens them perfectly but not Firefox. I changed default back to Firefox and still just opens Firefox to my homepage.

I can't believe that I'm the only one having this issue. I now have Firefox and Firefox Developer Edition installed. They both are behaving the same way. I have webpages, the local file, on my desktop that I work on before I upload to the web server. When I right click on these local files and choose to open with Firefox, Firefox will start up and open to my home page instead of opening the local file. The file type associated with Firefox so it should open with Firefox when I double click the files, but it doesn't open them. It only opens Firefox to my homepage. This used to work flawlessly until recent updates. Something has been changed to break this.

Did you try what I suggested? Opening those files from within Firefox.

What do you have set up as the default application for .html files? Or are you opening another kind of file that isn't normally/automatically associated with Firefox?

If you drag and drop the file onto a tab (which normally would replace the page there with the local file), what happens?

I had tried all the suggestions. None of they helped. I can open the files by browsing for they after Firefox is open. I was able to spend some more time troubleshooting the issue yesterday afternoon. The issue has to do with the 64-bit file system. When I right click and select open with and then point it to the installation folder in the Program Files (x86) folder, it still won't open the file just opens to my home page. I did notice that when I was browsing for Firefox.exe that it defaulted to the Program Files folder not the Program Files (x86) folder. So I renamed the exe to LittleFox.exe and browsed for that exe and Firefox would then open the files as expected. So my guess is that it is a registry setting that is all the headache. I don't have time to run that problem down but will just use my workaround by renaming a copy of the exe and use that with my file association.

Thanks

This thread will stay open for 6 months, so perhaps another person who likes plumbing the depths of the registry will come along with some suggestions.
