I have firefox set to open my homepage. But it keeps opening tab pages from last time
in the options general tab, I have one homepage upon startup. But, Firefox 28 ignores this option. Instead it open what had opened the last time.

My root issue was unable to toggle any about:config setting. So, I assumed my preference were corrupt. I did as one of your links suggested and initiated safe mode and reset to factory default. I'm good again. Thanks!!

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.

- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Director: Show Folder (Linux: Open Director; Mac: Show in Finder)
Note that you seem to have crash recovery and closed windows and tabs disabled.
- browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo: 0
- browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo: 0
- browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash: False
