Just when I think I have it figured out, I don't. When I open Firefox, I want outlook.live.com to be the first thing I see in the first tab and I want it to always stay that way. I'm constantly having to change my Permanent Tabs and it's a waste of my time. And when I select to open a tab, half the time I never get a chance to open a different tab before the website opens and then everything is screwed up again. I have tried to open the tab first, but that doesn't seem to work.

At first I thought I needed to open a tab for Firefox Home Page to sign in, but I'm ALWAYS signed in. In the menu options, I see "exit" but nothing to log out. Do I presume that I am always logged in to Firefox?

Do I need a separate tab for Grammarly? I have the extension in my add-ons and after I choose it and sign in I don't know what to do with this add-on. The only options I see are to keep a tab open for this, but I usually close it after logging in. Is there something else I need to do? I cannot minimize this page.

You ask, I think, 3 questions. If you want to keep tabs permanently, you need to select "Restore previous session" at the top of the 'General' page of Options/Preferences and leave those tabs open when you quit the browser. I don't know what you mean by the "Firefox Home Page". There are several choices on 'Home' in Options/Preferences. I have not chosen "Firefox Home" so I am not familiar with it. I am also unfamiliar with an add-on called Grammarly. Most authors of add-ons provide information on how to use their add-ons so I would check the Mozilla add-ons site or search for information.
