Forum der Gemeinschaft Firefox

For a week my pinned tabs are lost every time I open Firefox. I have checked my settings, they were the same as always. I have de-selected them, closed and re-opened firefox, selected them again, closed and re-opened again, pinned my tabs again. Then closed and re-opened firefox and still they are not there. I have done this multiple time with the same results. This seems to have started after the last update.

I just updated to Firefox 142.0.1, and the list all tabs button has returned. I tried the old fix by going into about:config and setting the browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled = false as I was originally shown, but it doesn't seem to work. I don't know why, as it seemed to be fine the last few versions. I did recently sync my browser with another one on a windows 11 machine (which I suspect I'll be returning soon, as I prefer windows 10 to windows 11), but I can't imagine that being the reason, I don't think. Can anyone help figure out how to turn this thing back off?

I used to leave many tabs opened in my browser so that when I got back I could easily find the one I wanted to use.

Now I can't because the Mozilla browser just won't save them. So each time that I open the browser they are all gone...

... Is there somersetting I can DO????

On Chrome Android, the tab group feature is super handy. You can create tab clusters, easily group similar tabs together, and switch between them fluidly. It really helps when you’re multitasking or doing research across multiple topics.

Also, the tab accessibility on Chrome Android is just better. The tab switcher is placed at the bottom of the screen, making it effortless to access all open tabs with just a thumb tap no awkward menu diving or stretching to the top.

My Questions:

1. Is there any timeline or roadmap for bringing tab group functionality to Firefox Mobile?

2. Are there any known efforts or discussions around improving the UI/UX of tab switching such as adding a bottom bar for easier access, similar to Chrome’s approach?

I really like the new tab group feature and I wondered if it would be possible to isolate tracking within a tab group. I didn't know about tab containers yet but it seems like a great feature to have the option to have a tab group also act as it's own tab container.

Are there any plans for integration between these two features?

I keep tabs up on a Window when I do "research". I will minimize the Window or at some point Close the window eventually and I EXPECT MY TAB HISTORY TO BE THERE UNTIL I TELL FIREFOX TO CLOSE THEM!!! My choice!! That's #1.

1. 2 - too often because of the above, I must go to History to "RE-OPEN all tabs" Too often - Clicking "Re-open all tabs" Does NOT work!!! Even if it's 5 minutes later???

when they should not have been closed in the first place. Poor function now requiring me to RE-sign in to what ever websites "G-mail" "Facebook" other stuff - I had on my Window and re type in all the work I already had up and ready to get back to work on.

This "tool" that supposedly wants me to use it that it's main function is "to make my life easier" does NOT get to waste my time over and over again. Used to work great - NEW IMPROVED FIREFOX SUCKS!!

Sick of this poor function.

Thank ONLY you "volunteers" for helping me. NO THANKS to FireFox NOT offering tech support or any customer service. am 2 secs away from moving to full Google Chrome (which I hate too) or any other browser.

in the useless 141 update, pinned tabs now scroll the same way as unpinned ones, this is a problem for my 300+ tabs. I specifically pinned some tabs to have access to them all the time. with the new useless update, I now have to scroll forward/backward 300 tabs. do you really have such low-skilled testers and incompetent programmers that you didn't foresee this situation?

Within a few weeks or months, tabs I hadn't closed would suddenly disappear, even though I had checked the "Open previous windows and tabs" option in the settings.

Can someone tell me why it is if I'm on a tab and either accidentally or on purpose click the home icon the tab will shut down, and be replaced by the home page? What type of backwards reasoning went into that feature? I've had this happen numerous times without intent, and sometimes with the intent to hit the home button and either way the same thing happens. If it weren't for the browser keeping a history, there are times I would be just out of luck, and have to suck it up. This is not a feature I want in a browser. Instead hitting the home button should forward the tab I'm on to the home page with the ability to back click to the tab I was on. Someone needs to re-think this feature. I would really like to have someone on the development team address this issue.

So, I recently encountered this problem: If I close the main Firefox window while a private window is open, then when I open a regular Firefox window, I find that all pinned tabs have been reset, and I have to set them again.

This problem has never happened before, so I figured it was clearly a new bug and I should report it.

I asked a friend, and yes, he also encountered this problem.rt it.

Hi, I just got an update message about AI-enhanced tab groups linking to this article for more information:https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-use-ai-enhanced-tab-groups#firefox:win11:fx142

However, while it does say it's a slow rollout it doesn't say anywhere how I can permanently disable this feature so that I never have to see it. I do not want any AI crap in my browser. There's plenty enough of this shit shoved down my throat from every direction as it is. If you're going to bake AI into the Firefox browser then I'd rather leave Firefox and find a different browser.
