I have v10.0.2 RELEASE and every since the last automatic update, everytime I startup Firefox, I get the "Welcome" page AND my Home page tabs. When I goto the settings and try to set the home page to something different, it gives me no errors, but doesn't change the setting.

Hi mreed72,

You should look at this article about that specific issue and the article Preferences not saved. These should give you all the information you need!

If that doesn't work:

  1. Type about:config in the address bar
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise if prompted
  3. In the Filter input field type startup
  4. Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
  5. Delete the text string and click OK
  6. Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.

Hopefully this helps!
