A year ago, or so, I updated my Firefox and received the option of when I open a new tab I was able to display several recent tabs. After having to mess with several settings and a rollback to delete an unwanted program I lost this function and have since not been able to recover it. please help? When I opened the new tab it had 9 tiles of recent websites, oh which I could remove from the list or lock into place.

hello, please install the search reset addon - it will revert the some common customizations (including the new-tab-page) in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

See also this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):

You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page.

It is also possible that you have hidden the grid display on the about:newtab page.
If this is the case then you should see a (faint) 3x3 grid icon in the top right corner.
