hello AScarr, please see if installing the searchreset addon can address the issue (despite its name it should also apply in case of a altered new tab page): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

in case this doesn't work could you go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? this might give us a clue what is going on...

You can also check the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page page if the SearchReset extension didn't help.

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
