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.

I must have done something wrong, but I don’t know when or how. Can you tell me how to get Firefox to always open my home page every time it loads?

Rick’s answer:  Marc, somehow a key setting has been changed that’s causing Firefox to behave that way, but luckily it’s very easy to fix. Here’s how:  [Read more…]

How to quickly change the text size in any web browser

Posted on December 27, 2022

Have you ever visited a web page that was difficult to read because the text was either too small or too large?

Most of us have, and it can be rather frustrating.

If you have a “wheel” mouse (and you really should get one if you don’t!) it’s extremely easy to change the text size to a more easily readable size. Here’s how:  [Read more…]

How to place any open browser tab in its own window

Question from Garry:  Rick, I was a faithful Internet Explorer user for years (I guess you can say I’m a creature of habit) but after switching from Windows 7 to Windows 10 I decided to give Chrome a try.

Now that I’ve tried it for a few weeks, I have to agree with all the good things I’d heard about Chrome because it doesn’t crash all the time, and it seems to really be a lot faster than IE too.

I knew there’d be a learning curve, but it wasn’t all that bad really.

But there’s one thing I just can’t figure out. How the heck do you display a web page’s HTML source code?  [Read more…]

Love Firefox, but wish it wasn’t so slow? Give ‘Pale Moon’ a try!

Posted on May 9, 2021

I’ll admit it, I love the Firefox web browser.

I really like the look and feel of Firefox’s browser window, and I LOVE all the great extensions that let me do things with Firefox that I can’t do with any other browser.

But as much as I love Firefox, there’s one thing that has kept me using Google Chrome as my primary web browser instead of Firefox: Firefox can be as slow as cold molasses while viewing some websites. But I have good news…  [Read more…]
