I assume that you deleted the downloads.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder?

Did you check the Home page or startup page(s) setting?


You can also try to delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

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).
