Why when I click on the Mozilla icon does google gmail come up--asking for my password for it? I can't access Mozilla Firefox.

After installing Windows 10, I changed my mind, and reverted to Windows 7. Then I downloaded Mozilla Firefox again, but clicking on its icon just brings up a page that is google demanding my password for my g-mail. How did they get so entwined? I had been using Mozilla for years before I fiddled with moving on to Windows 10. How do I solve this?

Do you have Gmail set as your homepage?

Please try changing your homepage. To do so, please refer to this Mozilla support article:
