I used to be able to open Firefox with a blank screen. Then anytime after, I could click the Home icon and get a set of URLs I had setup as my Home Page. Now it seems I only have the choice of startup with Blank page, Mozilla Home page, or my selections. Thanks

You're saying you had a custom URL that had the urls you wanted populated on it already? You should be able to still do that by choosing "Custom URL" and entering the URL of the page you used to use? Or am I misunderstanding your issue?

Did you check the settings in "Options/Preferences -> Home" ?

See also these prefs on the about:config page:

  • browser.startup.blankWindow
  • browser.startup.page

See the comments in the source code about these prefs:

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
