When I open Firefox to my home page I get a bunch of tabs in the address bar which more or less duplicate my bookmarks. I don't want to see these anymore. I tried to go to: Settings / Privacy + Security / Address Bar / Uncheck Bookmarks. But I can't find any button to Accept Changes. If I simply close the this page, next time I open Firefox the tabs are back. Please help.

Without any screenshot of the problem no one is going to know what happened or what is going on? Also what URL was it that caused this to happen as well.

See:

You can use these steps to remove saved items from an autocomplete drop-down list.

  1. click the (empty) input field on the webpage to open the drop-down list
  2. highlight an entry in the drop-down list with cursor Down key
    do not click the mouse or press the Enter key
  3. press "Delete" or "Shift+Delete" to delete the highlighted entry

Note that hovering with the mouse doesn't work.
