I can't delete more than one tile on a new tab at one time

When I open a new tab, I have it set for tiles, but if I remove one thumbnail, I cannot remove any more than that. Or if I pin a thumbnail, I cannot move around any other thumbnails. Is there a way to fix this?

This shouldn't happen.

Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.

  • browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
  • browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.

You can check for problems with preferences.

Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename/remove the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in current Firefox releases.

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
