Hello, up until yesterday every-time I opened a second tab on firefox, all my most used sites would be on that second tab. This was very useful to me! I would just open my second tab and click on facebook, or my e-mail, whatever.

Yesterday I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to windows 10 (I don't know if this has anything to do with it). And now, every-time I open a second tab, yahoo appears. I don't want yahoo, I never use yahoo. I want it has is was before, with my more visited websites and the google search bar on top. I went to the options, looked everywhere and all I could do was remove yahho from the receash bar on the top right corner... but my tabs keep coming like that.

I want to know how to put it exactly as it was before, please.

thanks in advance

Hi, try running the add-on SearchReset. This should reset your New Tab, Home and Search to default.

Alternatively, you can type about:config into the address bar, press Enter, accept the warning, scroll down to browser.newtab.url and make sure 'Value' is set to about:newtab (right click > Modify, to change it if necessary, taking care not to alter anything else). You may then need to restart Firefox.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
