Hello. My Firefox browser is patched to latest version; the problem is that Firefox can't forget one specific tab. Whenever I clear all history it asks about that tab on next start. Cleaning with Auslogics Browser Care doesn't help at all. Though, it cleans history, but the problem remains - that old tab that can't be forgotten by my Firefox. I was thinking of reinstalling my Firefox browser, but I don't want to set up all the parameters again... it's the least thing to do for me. If you know how to fix it, please help. It's a blank tab. Firefox browser can't forget it nor erase it to the hell out forever. It's stuck. How to fix it - I simply don't know.......... :(

In what way does it ask about this tab?

Is this tab opened automatically?

Did you check the home page setting to be sure it isn't set as the home?

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page

Does this web page come up if you open the about:config page via the location bar and search for this domain?

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.

Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
