Did you copy all your data from your old Firefox profile to your Firefox Quantum/57/Beta profile?

To switch the new tab from the "Activity Stream" design back to the old design, you can:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful or accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste newt and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false

You're done with this tab. If you already have the New Tab Page open, use Reload (Ctrl+r) to switch the layout, or close it and open a new New Tab Page.

Success?
