In Firefox, I have several windows open, each with many tabs. (And BTW, I love the Firefox tab-organization feature.) I would like to empty the cache and delete all cookies. Will that close the open tabs? Is there a way to delete the cookies, empty the cache and preserve all windows & tabs? 

      Thank you!

Hi,

Clearing cookies and cache should not close any of your tabs. However, be aware that doing this will log you out of all your accounts. See these articles for instructions:
