How to get rid of pinning on new tab

Ok so, I was just curious as how I can get rid of this new pinning website thing when I open a new tab. I don't want my most visited websites or any site for that matter being shown. Please if anyone can help me get it back the way it was, that would be great, and if not, just tell me how not to have my most visited auto pinned. Thank you so much for your time. Hope you have a great day!

  • How to get rid of bing at "new tab"

    I dont have a toolbar, it does not hijack my homepage. But everytime I open a new tab (which was always blank) I get a stupid bing search bar. That is the only place it shows up, but it is sooo annoying because I always go straight to typing whatever url I a going to, and this bar changes my cursors postion to it. How do I get rid of it?
    I have looked in plugins/extensions. It is not there. I have looked in program files, and in control panel -> programs. Nothing there either. I even went into about:config and reset everything that had a bing value. Still having the problem. What else is there to try?

    Check Tools: Add-ons: Extensions for an extension called "Default Tab." Disabling it may solve your problem.

  • How to get rid of D.O.T tab&MSI info tab?

    Hiya people
    Does anyone have any idea,s on how to get rid of the msi info and DOT tabs in the display properties
    I,ve looked thru the forums and someone said the msi drivers introduce a new dll to the win/system32 folder and the only way is to format the drive ,i don,t wonna do that as i,ve just recently formatted.
    Its not a major fault or anything as i think they are harmless, they just annoy me being there,i prefer coolbits for my overclocking.
    Any idea,s would be greatly appreciated thanks

  • How to get links to open in new tabs?

    How do I make links open in a new tab rather than opening another browser? This also happens when I check gmail inbox or if I highlight something to "Search in Google". How do I get all this to open in the current active browser? I've checked the preferences and didn't see anything to fix this. Thanks in advance.

    I use SafariStand for this. It has a preference "Open Target Link in New Tab" along other cool enhancements (and some unexplainable ones).
    This is one of those Safari add-ons that uses SIMBL, so if you don't like the prospect of possibly having to update it manually in buried folders every time Safari makes a big change, you might not want to install it.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    I have a new iPhone 5S.  While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content.  I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it.  There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want.  I have deleted it from iTunes but cannot get it off the phone.  Help!

    The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

  • HOw to get rid of the borderline in the  render list item of the news brows

    HI,
    HOw to get rid of the renderlist
    border line,
    Give Feedback  link   
    Send To  link in the news browser.
    After removing thiese things, it should look like a normal html page .
    how to  achive this ,
    if coding required then which is the par file I need to modify
    thanks
    pkiran

    Hi PKG,
    the "GiveFeedback" and "SendTo" links are called "FlexUI" commands. Most of that stuff is highly configurable and naturally you can remove them in the KM Configuration at
    SystemAdmin->SystemConfig->KM->CM->UserInterface
    -> ... -> ResourceRnderer
    Your ResourceRenderer uses a CommandGroup. In this CommandGroup you can add/remove commands.
    For example un your case its the CommandGroup "NewsDisplayGroup"
    Kind Regards

  • New item icon in iCal suddenly appears and don't how to get rid of it.

    I have a little number 1 in my iCal next to my Home calendar on the left side of iCal. It resembles the little number 1 I'd get in the Mail program if I had one new email.
    I have no idea where it came from and want it GONE. Can you help?

    I just figured out how to get rid of the numbers. Click Notifications on the bottom left part of the Ical screen and some blank invitations will show up. Click one and a box shows up that gives you the option of deleting the Notification/Invitation. I did that for the 4 little boxes and the number is gone.

  • How to get rid of the new bottom layer with piano roll etc. in arrange??

    Hey guys,
    Just a quick question i suppose.
    I work with 2 screens.
    When I double click a midi event, i want the piano roll to open in a floating window, just like it used to be, and not in the new bottom layer (pop up) bar in the bottom of the arrange window. I want this because i like to edit on the second screen while still haveing an overview of my arrange on my 1st screen.
    Does anyone know how to do this? Or perhaps know how to get rid of this new bar all together?
    I hope someone does....
    thanks in advance!
    cheers,
    PM

    how annoying is it to go to a seperate screen set and then click a midi region just to edit it?
    You haven't grasped the concept of screensets.
    In the "old" way of working, in your arrange, you double-click on a region, which opens that region in an editor. You may have to move the editor position/size etc. You make your edits, and then close the window.
    The screenset way of doing this is simpler and quicker. In your arrange, you select your region (one click, rather than a double click). You then hit a key command, lets' say "2" to switch to your editor screenset, which has the eitor or combination of editors you use, in link mode. As soon as you hit your 2 key, the editors will be recalled at the precise locations you specified, showing you the contents of your selected region.
    When you are finished editing, just hit "1" to go back to your main arrange window.
    Once you get used to this, you'll find it's a lot quicker and more efficient than all that rsi double clicking and window closing...

  • How to get rid of new menu button on far right side of toolbar

    Honestly, I don't know why developers can't offer us new features which we can use or not use, by choice. Instead, things are forced upon us.
    Would someone please tell me how to get rid of the new menu button on the right side of the toolbar?
    There doesn't seem to be any option to remove it via the Customize toolbars window.
    Thank you very much.

    Hello brynn2,
    First of all thank you for understanding us and sorry for the delay, it has really been a busy week for all of us out here.
    The interface you see in Firefox 29 is a major re-design (first one since Firefox 4) of Firefox's user interface called "Australis."
