I would like my home page to be the ABC news site. However, the default seems to be Brisbane Qld. No matter how many times I change it to my location, which is Melbourne Vic. and then select "use current page" in settings, next time I turn on my PC, it's back to Brisbane. Is there a way to set my home page permanently to show my location (Melbourne Vi.) ? Regards, Manfred

This is a common frustration Firefox sometimes resets homepage settings if it detects conflicts with location or default preferences. One workaround is to create a new Firefox profile and set ABC News as the homepage there, which usually sticks. Also, make sure you don’t have any sync or startup extensions overriding it. I track browser settings and fixes in Phonexa, which helps keep these changes permanent across devices.
