I have two specific pages set as my home page(s) for when I open Firefox; one is a Digital Radio Streaming page and the other is Google. With the browser open I'd like to be able to click on home and JUST go to Google, not open both pages again. Is this possible?

You can modify your Firefox desktop shortcut with the two startup URLs. To try that:

  • Desktop shortcut: right-click the icon, choose Properties
  • Pinned taskbar icon: right-click the icon, right-click Mozilla Firefox, choose Properties

Windows normally will select the Shortcut tab. If not, go ahead and click the Shortcut tab.

You'll see the Target highlighted. On 64-bit Windows, that usually is no more and no less than the following:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

To have the shortcut launch specific pages, you can add them to the end, for example:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -url "http://www.dilbert.com/" -url "http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine"

After OK'ing the Properties dialog, you can test right away to confirm that Firefox now launches a window with those tabs. Either:

  • double-click desktop shortcut
  • right-click pinned taskbar icon, click Mozilla Firefox

Does that do what you want?

Sorry, on 32-bit Windows, you'll have:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -url "http://www.dilbert.com/" -url "http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforeswine"
