how to stop the mozilla page from loading at start up
After updating Firefox, every I open the browser a Mozilla page and my home page opens. The Mozilla page say Committed to you, your privacy etc. I have tried several ways to stop this but none of them worked and I would like for Firefox to just open my home page. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type about:config.
If a warning screen comes up, press the Be Careful button.
This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
At the top of the screen is a search bar. Enter browser.newtab.url
and press enter. browser.newtab.url
tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
If you want, right click and select Modify. You can change the
setting to;
about:home (Firefox default home page),
about:newtab (shows the sites most visited),
about:blank (a blank page),
or you can enter any web page you want.
The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
browser.startup.homepage.
When Firefox opens there are 2 tabs, the 1st is the Mozilla Committed to you, your privacy etc, The 2nd tab is my home page. I did as suggested and it did not work. In the start up window there are 4 different lines and I could not change or delete a couple of them. I want Firefox back to where it opens and my home page is the only one open. Again, I owuld appreciate any help with resolving this

Reset Firefox
You can check for problems with preferences.
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
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)
Problem solved. Thanks to everyone that responded!
