This code in mozilla.cfg used to overwrite new tab, but as of latest firefox 136.0b1 no longer works. Any way to fix this? There error in Browser Console.

// mozilla.cfg needs to start with a comment line var {classes:Cc,interfaces:Ci,utils:Cu} = Components;

/* set new tab page */ try {

 Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm");
 var newTabURL = "file:///D:/Documents/images/home.html";
 AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL;

} catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console

I recently updated to Firefox 135.0 on MacBook Pro, Catalina, OS 10.15.7 In the past, with multiple Firefox windows open & multiple tabs open in each, when restarting, "reopen pages on startup" selected, system loaded & ready to go, I'd find all windows, tabs & history available upon launching Firefox. Since update to 135.0, shut down & restart, launch Firefox and I find a single blank new window, no multiple windows, no tabs, no history. I've tried to find [Settings] to make everything come back - no joy, to no avail. Suggestions? Help? Thanks, JS

Firefox has a feature where, if you select a tab and drag your cursor downwards while still pressing down on it, it will open that tab in a new window. Is there any way to disable this? I am frequently opening tabs in new windows when I'm just trying to view them and it drives me mad. I never use this feature intentionally- I am constantly using on accident due to quickly moving my cursor away from the tab bar to view the tab I just opened. Thank you.

Hi! I know this is not very descriptive probably, so sorry for that, but a relative of mine has a new laptop with Windows 11 and often, after a while using it with normality it starts to open every link on a new window, as if shift was clicked on.

Don't know if you can activate a similar function to shift by accident or something, but it has happened a couple of times to him since he bought this laptop. I couldn't replicate this myself yet but since I have found some similar posts about Windows 11 and Firefox tabs I was wondering it this does ring a bell to you.

Thanks!

Hi,

since it is not acceptable to use a browser that requires you to fumble around in a submenu to close tabs to the right – which is the most important tab function for professional users – I unfortunately haven't been able to use Firefox so far (which I would very much like to do for data protection reasons). Is that still the case (installing an add-on is out of the question for me)?

I have a fairly large number of tabs I keep open in the latest desktop version of Firefox on Windows 10. I regularly scroll along those tabs and lose my place, although the current page remains open. How do I get the tab bar to scroll back to show the active tab for the current page?

I know I can open a tab drop down list and search for it, but I do have a lot of tabs listed and it takes a bit of searching to find the tab I'm looking for. I'm hoping that there's a key press solution to this. I have already tried the ctrl+tab, but that takes me to the page prior to the page I currently have open.

Hi, How can I open previous Tab pages? When I turn on my laptop and open browser there was no my tab pages. There was couple of it and very important. I must point out that there never was a problem and it ALWAYS opened by itself but not this time. I don't have a option to restore the previous session and I wasn't loggged in cause I create an account today? Any ideas to solve the problem?
