Unwanted Tabs Open Automatically

Without me making any changes, Firefox (50.0.2) started opening unwanted tabs when I opened Firefox. Before, I'd open Firefox to show a blank page, which is my preferred setting. Now, it opens that page and two other tabs, each of them for web clippers I have installed. How do I keep these two additional tabs from opening?

Hi, Firefox is able to open multiple home pages with the URLs separated by a 'pipe' (|), so please see - How to set the home page, and in 'Home Page,' make sure that in addition to your home page URL, there isn't anything else - if there is, just delete it. (the Firefox start page is about:home but you may have set a different one; the New Tab page is about:newtab; if you want a blank page, it's about:blank).

If it's easier, you can just click on Restore to Default instead.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you!
