Q&A: Why does Firefox always reopen the last page I visited every time I load it?

Posted on January 5, 2023

Question from Marc:  Beginning last Tuesday, every time I load Firefox it opens the page that was open when I quit the previous session. It’s really irritating.

My son was messing around in the settings in Firefox and he deleted my browser history, including the cookies that kept me logged into my most important accounts.

Do you know if there’s a way to “unclear” the browser history in Firefox?

Posted on July 1, 2022

Do you use Chrome, Firefox or Edge for your web browser?

If so, you probably know that you can either click the “Star” icon on the right side of the address bar or press Ctrl+D to bookmark the web page you’re currently viewing.

Those are the methods most people use to bookmark a page, but there’s an even better way because it only requires a quick click and drag. Here’s how to do it: [Read more…]
