Every time I close and reopen the browser (and then check the Process Manager), all my pinned tabs are there and taking 20-30 megabytes each while I didn't click on them and they're supposed to be unloaded after startup

None of the unpinned tabs are in the Process Manager

How do i stop this?

-- Windows 11, latest browser updates

In regular conditions the Restore Previous Session works as intended. But if I open a private tab and then close my regular tabs (so only private tab is left open) firefox won't restore the closed tabs the next time I open it. It never happened with other browsers that I used in the past. Is there any way to fix this by tweaking config or smth? I think this might be caused by the fact that you can reopen closed tabs in private session with ctrl + shift + t, but I don't know the setting name to test it.

Why isn't there a setting to open closed tabs from the history menu in a new tab, rather than overwriting the current tab? This is incredibly frustrating as I just lost a lot of progress on a page that doesn't autosave when I tried to open a tab I had closed a day earlier with information I needed. Is there anyway to do this with config files or something?

Despite having the setting "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" selected, CTRL-Tab has suddenly stopped cycling tabs in the most recently used order. Firefox behaves as if the setting is disabled. This is the third time I've experienced this issue in the past year, and every time the only solution that worked was to create a new profile. It is exhausting to get a new profile back to exactly how the old profile was, and it's something I shouldn't have to do.

Scenario: I am on Windows 11 (though this has also happened to me on Windows 10), currently using version 146.0.1 (though this has happened on previous versions). CTRL-Tab cycles in the most recently used order just fine for several months, then it suddenly doesn't—this happens in the middle of an active session, i.e., not after a restart of the browser nor the computer itself. I have four add-ons, none of which control tab cycling, nor have I added/removed any add-ons nor changed any of their settings since their initial installation many months ago.

What I've tried:

• Disabling/re-enabling the setting (even though it is already checked)
• Disabling/re-enabling the config browser.ctrlTab.sortByRecentlyUsed
• Restarting Firefox normally
• Restarting with add-ons disabled—note that the issue persists even with add-ons disabled
• Disabling the setting, then restarting Firefox, then re-enabling the setting
• Restarting the computer

It's the same thing described in this Reddit thread. What else can I try?
