Here's where to specify the new tab page you want:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste newtab and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the browser.newtab.url preference and enter your preferred page:
- Page thumbnails (default) => about:newtab
- Blank tab => about:blank
- Built-in Firefox home page => about:home
- Any other page => full URL to the page
Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
Here are some common reasons it might not have worked:
If Firefox won't let you edit this setting at all: you may have something called SearchProtect on your system. That needs to be removed through the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program.
If Firefox lets you save your change but ignores it: one of your other extensions may be overriding it. You can review, disable, and/or remove extensions on the add-ons page. Either:
- Ctrl+Shift+a
- "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column click Extensions, then cast a critical eye over the list on the right.
If the change works during your session, but at the next startup is back to AOL: you might have a user.js file in your personal Firefox settings folder (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and remove the file: How to fix preferences that won't save.
Any luck?
