I need to know how to be able to close a Firefox window (including all tabs at once) again.

I used to be able to click the red X in the upper right hand corner, receive a pop-up window warning me that I was about to close all open tabs, and then click yes or OK in that pop-up window and then have the entire window (with all open tabs) close. Thus exiting out of Firefox.

Now that I have updated to 48.0.2 this no longer functions the same. Now, when I click the red X, the tab furthest to the right closes.. if I click the X again, the next furthest to the right closes. This is ridiculous. How do I get Firefox to respond correctly to what the red X is supposed to mean.. it means close the window and warn me about any open tabs!

Any help will be MUCH appreciated.

If it matters, I am running Firefox 48.0.2 on Windows 7 Home Premium.

Please disregard. I have found the solution.

Turns out that it was a selection/option within my Add-on "Hide Caption Title Bar Plus". I have made the correct selection and all is right within my Firefox world once again.

Thank you and good night. :)
