Changes made on firefox arent registered and need to change again every time firefox restarts.
Since I installed firefox on my new PC nothing seems to register. Every time I start it, it wants to give me a tour like the first time I installed it. Fond size on same pages change every time I open them. Change of the home page doesn't register, meaning after I change it on the options it will not remember it next time I restart the program. On top of that, even though its shows that I am signed it for syncing, it actually does not sync anything from my older PC.

Hi anorthodoxos, Thank you for your question, I understand that options are not being saved when you restart Firefox. How to fix preferences that won't save
Two other hunches:
- Are you browsing in permanent private browsing?
- Do you have multiple profiles? Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles
Did this help?

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware. Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is and what it does.
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Open the Add-ons Manager <Control><Shift> A and disable All of them.
Also, check the programs that are on your computer
Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. Linux: Check your user manual.
Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't know what it is, use a web search.
