I made the mistake of upgrading to firefox 21 from 20. Now every time I start firefox , it checks for plugin compatibility and then when it does start, it opens 2 tabs. One is my home page and the other is the page congratulating me for upgrading and wants me to sign up for crap I don't want. Also, I have to check the box to block popups every time I start firefox.

Hello,

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.

To Reset Firefox do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.
