I just updated Adobe flash, and when Firefox restarted my about:blank homepage was now the Firefox homepage. This has never happened before today. Why is that?

Hi, there haven't been any other reports of anything like that, so it may just have been an inexplicable glitch. Firefox Home Page is the default, but this article will show you how to change it back to your preferred Show a blank page - How to set the home page.

If your setting reverts back to default again after changing it, please see - How to fix preferences that won't save.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
