when I open the internet I get the first page, I then open a second page and get my most used tabs added, its really nice to see a screen copy of the page, its nice to see a copy of that page as a tab, quite often when I open the first page set to "Bing" it can take a while to open so the screen is blank an d that is what gets copied, is there a way to reset the page to show a picture of that page as it is or even a picture of my choosing?

Also I have in the past accidentally deleted a tab from the screen page and it dose not come back with use, is there a way to reintroduce a tab that was deleted?

Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.

  • browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
  • browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.

You can reset browser.newtabpage.blocked via the right-click context menu to the default value.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
