Hello, it's not normal, maybe have you try to see the launch options on your firefox version ? You could uninstall firefox and then delete all files and reinstall it. Even if the problem persist, try to repair firefox using windows apps manager ;)
Type about:config<enter> in the address bar. If a warning screen comes up, press the I Accept the Risk button. At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type browser.startup.homepage
What is the value? Right-click and select Reset to restore its default value; about:home
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
You can check the home page setting.
- Options/Preferences -> General -> Startup: Home page
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-set-the-home-page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
You can check for problems with preferences.
- delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename/remove the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in current Firefox releases

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
