How To Open Firefox On Last App Tab Used, Not New Tab
I used to have this until a recently installed program decided to change my settings around. Forced my default search to Bing. Forced me to open every new session of Firefox onto same. I uninstalled it, but Firefox never reset back. I fixed my default search, but no matter what I do, Firefox always relaunches and opens up a new tab instead of launching on my last used app tab. I want to stop opening a new home page and just used my last used tab.
I'm using Firefox 97 on Win10 PC.

Make sure you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History).

about: config didn't work. And my options are set to restore previous windows and tabs. Which works fine if a nonapp tab is left open when I close. But when just app tabs, it still opens a new tab.
If you close Firefox with only pinned-tabs open then Firefox will open a normal tab on the next start, so that is expected behavior. If you want to open a pinned tab then you need to leave at least one normal tab open.
Then how was I able to previosuly open app tabs only
