Every time I open my browser the same 3 tabs open even though I specified a single tab as my home page! The tabs are welcome to firefox, mozilla start page and mozilla notepad addon. Also my addon lastpass manager every time I start it I have to keep adding my info like its the first time Im using it. I ran scans and malware scans and nothing. Please help, I love firefox but Im ready to quit using it.

Hi Philipp, thats not the problem, I forgot to mention that I uninstalled and reinstalled the browser several times and that didnt work also. Thank you for trying to help. I however in desperation tried one more thing, I uninstalled firefox and all of my personal info(after exporting my bookmarks) and did a clean install and that worked.

hello dalmar6677, this is likely a case of preferences not properly saving when you close the browser. for details on how to resolve that please refer to How to fix preferences that won't save.
