How to set up a new tab in Mozilla Firefox?
Another number of versions of Mozilla Firefox back, namely to the fortieth version inclusive, in the browser using the hidden settings menu, you could configure a new tab, setting absolutely any address of the web page.
Recall how it was necessary to act. It was required in the Mozilla Firefox address line, follow the link:
About: Config
Users agreed with a warning and switched to the hidden settings menu.
It was required to find the parameter. It is easiest to do this by pressing the Ctrl + F key combination to display the search string, and the following parameter is already found through it:
browser.newtab.url
By double-clicking the parameter, you could set absolutely any address of the web page that would automatically be loaded each time each time you create a new tab.
Unfortunately, subsequently this opportunity was removed, because Mozilla considered this way to effectively combat viruses, which, as a rule, are aimed at changing the address of the new tab.
Now, not only viruses cannot change the new tab, but also users.
In this regard, the tab can be changed in two ways: standard means and third-party additions.

You can dilute the list of frequently visited pages, you can offer Mozilla. To do this, click in the upper right corner of the new tab on the gear icon and in the displayed window, check the box near the item "Including offered sites".
