Why does Firefox (after the latest update) open an additional tab "What's new"? It causes my laptop to crash, including my "Session restore"

Mozilla Fireox Session Restore fully functioned. However, not after latest update (10.0.2). It takes a lot time to load the (additional tab) page "what's new?" / "Firefox add-ons" after which the script running Session Restore fails.

Only occurs after (re)starting laptop.

How do I remove this addional tab ? It's irritating.

Hi Murdock_1,

You should look at this article about that specific issue and the article Preferences not saved. These should give you all the information you need!

If that doesn't work:

  1. Type about:config in the address bar
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise if prompted
  3. In the Filter input field type startup
  4. Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
  5. Delete the text string and click OK
  6. Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.

Hopefully this helps!
