Hi. All of a sudden this morning when I opened a new tab it kept opening up to the yahoo home page. All your "help" articles reference what you can do in the new tab option but I don't see it in customize or in tab under options.

You can look at the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page and set that pref to the URL of your preferred new tab page.

  • the default new tab page with the tiles is about:newtab
  • the default home page is about:home
  • for a blank page you can use about:blank

The browser.newtabpage.enabled pref should be set to true to use the page set via browser.newtab.url as the new tab page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
