That pretty much sais it all. I start firefox, go to tools then options. Set my home page I want and durring the session I can open new tabs, press home box and get my home page. Then I close down firefox and restart it, press home box and goes somewhere else. Go bact to tools|options and see another web site in home box. So far to keep going to my home page temporarily, opted to re-open last windows just so one tab has the page. This work fine with previous versions (setting home page), but just upgraded to ver 16.0.1. Is there something else I need to do to keep my home page or what?

Hi marketrue,

Have you looked at the How to fix preferences that won't save article?

That should get you up and running!
