It is annoying those tabs shows up every time I start Firefox. Can someone help me disable or how to make them completely gone? I don't know what I did or how I did, since the recent update, those Customize tab and Option tab shows up when I start firefox. Some people said you can disable from reference, I have no idea where that is. I can't find option or setting for tabs anywhere except the one in the Customize tab but they are only for search engines etc, nothing about those option tab/customize tab. Firefox has too many option buttons and it is confusing too.

Please help me.... !!

You can check the home page setting.

Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.


The about:preferences page gets included as one of the home pages if you click "Use Current Page(s)" to set the home page and about:preferences is open in a tab. If you want to use the "Use Current Pages" button in "Options/Preferences > General" then you can pin the tab with the about:preferences page via the right-click context menu of the tab to prevent including about:preferences to the home page setting. You can drag the globe/padlock at the left end of the location/address bar to the toolbar Home button to set a single page as the home page.
