Hello, I see the two posts about the same thing having happened for Firefox. Is anyone experiencing this with Chrome? I have Chrome Version 106.0.5249.119 (Official Build) (64-bit) with Fireshot Lite 1.10.5.
Even having Chrome setup to open a specific page of https://www.google.ca, the extra tab opens each and every time Chrome is.

Thanks.

Hello. Actually, this is a problem of a browser's profile, not FireShot. The profile seems to be corrupted, so it cannot store preferences, including the option flagging that there's no need to show the "Installed" page anymore.

A fix to that problem is either to repair the profile, or create a new one from scratch.

Thanks JK, the issue has been solved. Wouldn't have thought the Chrome profile since it really gave me no indication that there was a problem. I ended up doing Method 1 & Method 3 from the URL below to create a new profile and so far I've opened the browser 3 times and the "What's New" page hasn't come back. The webpage I used was Methods to create new Chrome Profile. It looks like all my bookmarks and addons came back just fine as well.

Thanks Again
