how do I get to the firefox home page NOT the yahoo home page

The default homepage in Firefox is about:home

However since Firefox 34.0 the default search engine in en-US Firefox changed from Google to Yahoo.

You can check the home page setting:

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page

The default home page is about:home

Note that Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

What is the current home page setting?


Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
