When I open the tab apps I have set up will open along with three tabs as well, which are the same windows as my tab apps. i have tried using the %7C to make the tabs go away but it is not working. I have tried to unpin my tabs, close them out, and pin the open tabs instead, but that does not work either.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
