Every time I open Firefox it opens to the last page I was viewing. I don't want that. I've tried creating a home page for when I open it - but that doesn't work. I tried to select "open to blank page", but that doesn't work. Please help me disable this feature. Even though I've disabled it in Options - it continues to happen. Thank you.

HI, please Copy/Paste about:preferences to the Address Bar and Enter. 2nd one down Check when Firefox Starts : Show your home page. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

Possibly something mucked up in your Profile which is causing the issue.

See what happens with the above and let us know please.
