I live in France. I want to use yahoo.com as my homepage. When Firefox opens or when I click the Home icon, I automatically get taken to yahoo.fr. Is this a Firefox thing or a Yahoo thing? I've tried refreshing Firefox. I've disabled third party cookies. I've disabled geo location. I've disabled automatic fetching. Any ideas?

That is likely a Yahoo thing. A lot of websites (e.g. Yahoo and Google) do a reverse lookup of your IP and offer you pages in the local language.

Thanks. I couldn't find a yahoo.com under the Yahoo logo but I did type us.yahoo.com into the URL bar and had success. Then I also typed it as my homepage preference instead of simply yahoo.com and that seemed to work as well. Now all I need to do is reconstruct some stuff that I lost by refreshing Firefox. Thanks again.

When you use the refresh feature in Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks and history, form data, tabs) is automatically imported. The current profile folder will be moved to an "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop. Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you have made are lost and need to be redone.

It is possible to recover data from the "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

You can copy files like these with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to recover specific data. Note that you should be cautious with copying SQLite database files if you previously had problems.

  • bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
  • bookmark backups: compressed .jsonlz4 backups in the bookmarkbackups folder
  • cookies.sqlite for the cookies
  • formhistory.sqlite for saved form data
  • logins.json and key3.db (decryption key) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager
  • cert8.db and possibly cert_override.txt for (intermediate) certificates stored in the Certificate Manager
  • persdict.dat for words you added to the spelling checker dictionary
  • permissions.sqlite for Permissions and possibly content-prefs.sqlite for other Site Preferences
  • sessionstore.js for open tabs and pinned tabs

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
