does ff no longer open with more than one tab? "browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once" does that exactly. No "user.js" file present.

I want the tabs to open consistently to MY homepages.

not last pages visited. not a blank tab or one page. not "about:preferences#general".

Running 42.0

Any suggestions?

Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar.

There are two settings;

  • When Firefox Starts

When the browser is started, what do you want to display. Many of us choose Show My Home Page.

  • Home Page

When a new page is opened, what do you want displayed.

  1. Use Current Page. Use what ever page(s) are open at that time.
  2. Use Bookmark
  3. Restore To Default. about:home shows a Mozilla home page with tools.

You can use any of these that you wish;

about:home (Firefox default home page), about:newtab (shows the sites most visited), about:blank (a blank page),

or you can enter any web page or about: page you want.

You can check the home page setting to see if the about:preferences page is appended (|about:preferences#general) if this page opens as one of the pages when you start Firefox.

Note that this can happen if you click "Use Current Pages" to set the home page. You can pin the tab with the about:preferences page to prevent including about:preferences to the home page setting if you want to use the "Use Current Pages" button. To set a single page as the home page you can drag the globe/padlock to the toolbar Home button.

Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox title bar.

  • Linux: File > Quit
