How Can I Get My Home Page to Open With Every Tab on Mozilla Firefox?
The Mozilla Firefox Web browser doesn't have the option to open your home page on new tabs by default. Every new tab you open leads to a blank page. Multiple add-ons for the browser give you the option to open your home page in new tabs. If you're worried about safety, all of the add-ons that give Firefox this ability are hosted on the browser's official add-ons page. After installing one of them, you can set your home page to automatically open in every new tab that would have been a blank page.
