If I have a pinned homepage; How can I keep Firefox from opening a second tab. None of the answers on this site help at all

I have a local html file on my system that I use as a homepage in Firefox. This homepage has a list of links that I regularly use. I have this file homepage pinned in Firefox. Every time I open Firefox not only do I get my pinned homepage, I get another tab with the firefox homepage opened and focused on.

All I want to load when I open Firefox is my chosen homepage. That is it. How do I stop this second tab from opening?

None of the older questions and answers on this site seem to work. Why is this so hard. It works in Google Chrome out of the box but I'm migrating away from Chrome because Google decided to break my extensions without my permission by not allowing third party extensions to be loaded, only ones listed in their store.

I do not see why it should not work for you. I have just tried doing that and it works for me.

First of all double check what is shown on your list of home pages. Firefox may be set to open more than one home page,each one as a separate tab. The listing separates the tabs with a pipe symbol | (Often the key above the Ctrl key)

Another possibility is that you have set Firefox to restart with the tabs from the previous setting.

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

You can check the home page setting:

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
