I installed Firefox 29.01 but two pages keep popping up, my home page and the what's new in Firefox page. How do I stop the What's New page from popping up?
I installed Firefox 29.01 but every time I open it my home opens and so does the What's new in Firefox page. I want to disable the What's New page and only want the home page to open up but everytime I start Firefox both pages open up.

hello, this might happen when firefox is not able to properly save preferences in its profile folder. please try this: Click the menu button 
and then click help 
> troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder". then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named user.js (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.
for more information and other steps please also see: How to fix preferences that won't save
Thanks very much Philipp! I renamed the file new.js, restarted Firefox and my home page is the only page that opens. This is great!
MANY THANKS!
all the best, Mark
