I had Duck Duck Go as my Homepage and Search Engine in Firefox and wanted to go back to Bing for both my Homepage and Search Engine. Which I did, I now have Bing set as both my Homepage and Search Engine but whenever I open Firefox the first tab I get opens and shows Bings homepage (and search engine) but then another tab opens up behind the Bing tab and it is Duck Duck Go's home page and search engine.
Can someone please help me get rid of the Duck Duck Go tab coming up all the time?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming you're running the current version of Firefox, try the following:- Open Firefox > Close all tabs except the Bing tab > Tools > Options > General > Startup When Firefox starts > Ensure Bing is correctly nominated as your home page and select "Show my home page". Let us know, because if that doesn't work it would seem DDG's settings need investigation. |

I'm sorry, I should have known to mention what version of Firefox I was using, when the second tab kept coming up I was so flustered I never gave it a thought. I'm using 56.0.
I did what you said Paul and where it say's "Home page" it had both Bing and Duck Duck Go so that explains why both were coming up like they were and once I deleted the Duck Duck Go only the Bing tab came up.
Thank you so much.
