How do I stop a tabbed website from recurring when Firefox is Started? I inadvertently allowed Firefox to save tabbed setting when I shut down Firefox. Now every time I start Firefox the tabbed website continues to return. How do I cancel that tabbed web site from opening when I start Firefox?

Chosen solution

See:

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my home page" or "Show a blank page"

  • Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
  • Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Sometimes the hardest questions result in the most obvious/simplest solutions. If I would have only looked closer.
