I can't get Firefox to start with a blank page, which I always managed to do up till 17.0, buy now it always starts with the last page.

I have been using Firefox for several years, and know how to set my Home Page by going to Tools/Options/General, and selecting the appropriate tab. However, since the last update to 17.0.1, It now always starts as it was when I shut down, including multiple windows if I had them open. It is so irritating that I am considering changing my browser.

Tried everything in that article, but nothing has changed. I must emphasise that this problem only started when I update to 17.0.1.

Solved the problem another way. I saved my bookmarks file to my desktop, uninstalled Firefox completely, and reinstalled. Everything ok now! Thanks to those who offered advice.
