| 00:18 | Preferences within Mozilla Firefox allows us to perform repetitive tasks with ease. |
| 00:24 | For Windows users, this feature is called Options. |
| 00:29 | Say for example, we want to set our email login page as our home page. |
| 00:33 | So, we will click on Edit and Preferences. |
| 00:37 | Windows users should click on Tools and Options. |
| 00:42 | The Preferences or Options dialog box opens. At the top of the dialog box, there are a number of tabs. |
| 00:50 | Each one has a different function. |
| 00:53 | The General panel contains preferences related to the most commonly used settings such as : setting Firefox home page, setting file download location. |
| 01:04 | Let us learn how to set 'Gmail' as our default home page. |
| 01:08 | Under Start up, in the When Firefox starts drop-down menu, select ‘Show my home page’. |
| 01:16 | By default, the Home page field is set to ‘Mozilla Firefox Start Page’. |
| 01:22 | Click on the Home Page field and type ‘www.gmail.com’. |
| 01:29 | Click on the Close button to close the dialog box. |
| 01:33 | Our settings will be saved automatically. |
| 01:36 | Now, close this Firefox window. |
| 01:40 | And open a new Firefox window. |
| 01:42 | You will notice that the 'Gmail login page' is the homepage. |
