Chosen solution

Hello,

Something may have changed one of your preferences.

  1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
  3. You can change your new tab page by modifying the browser.newtab.url preference, if you right click on it you can also reset it to default (about:newtab).
