I don't want to be asked to confirm each time I want to close multiple tabs. How can I switch off this feature?

Would you try this please :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar browser.tabs.warnOnClose

Set it's value to false

Do the same with browser.tabs.warnOnCloseOtherTabs

Then close and restart Firefox.
