Why does Firefox open the pages I was in previously rather than my home page? I chose the homepage in options.
I close all pages before closing my laptop, but when I open Firefox the next time, it reopens all of those pages and their tabs rather than my homepage. I checked under "options" and it shows that I had chosen to open my homepage, so I have no idea why it is doing this.

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
The user.js file will only be present if you or other software has created this file and normally won't be present. You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: "Open with"; do not double-click). The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session. You can delete the user.js file if you didn't create this file yourself.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
