why does the left sidebar stay open obscuring the news screen?
when I open Firefox the left sidebar opens wide and I can't get it to reduce so I can read the news screens.

What is in the sidebar?
You can check the home page setting to make sure you aren't opening a bookmark that opens in the sidebar.
- Options/Preferences -> General -> Startup: Home page

Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
Try to rename/remove the xulstore.json file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed.
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
