I opened Mozilla Firefox and went to a website and downloaded a PDF converter file to enable me to print specific diagrams. Now when I click to Firefox (set to Google) home page it comes up in "PDF converterHQ by my way" and no the usual Firefox. I would like to delete the PDF 'thingy' and go back go back to the original, I have shut down the computer and started it again, but still get the same PDF converterHQ. Please can somebody help. I have Windows 10

Many thanks, 4jays

PDFConverterHQ 7.102.10.4849 (_fsMembers_@free.pdfconverterhq.com)

That was installed as an extension in Firefox. See this to learn how to remove an extension: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/disable-or-remove-add-ons

And then, if that didn't fix your homepage setting, see this: See - How to set the home page And use the Restore to Default button.
