I saw bunch of threads which suggest to enable "ctrl+tab cycles through tabs in recently used order". It does what I need, but in previous versions I used to press only ctrl+tab. While I was holding ctrl I could iterate over tabs via tab key. After releasing ctrl selected tab was chosen

It differs with current behavior where you press ctrl+tab and after releasing all keys pop up with tabs is still be viewed and you need manual action with space/enter/mouse click to open selected tab

Is there any way to use only ctrl+tab without any manual actions required like it was back in the days where after releasing the control key selected tab is opened?

I've been backing up my opened tabs for the past 4 or 5 years with the steps in this legendary post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1257866

But this time it failed me and I don't know why. I just switched from Debian to Linux Mint, put everything up to date, but when I copy the sessions-store folder back into my session folder, as described in the post, nothing happens. I tried restoring only the 2 files listed there, and also dropping them in the general user folder, outside sessions-store, but still nothing. I've also noticed that the sessions-store folder isn't created automatically, even if I open a bunch of new tabs now and close the browser.

I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this to be honest, this is the first time this method's ever failed me :(

I also saw this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup But it doesn't help either.

Google told me to go to About.Config, find "browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon" then change the value to false. But, at least in my version of FF, that doesn't work because browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon isn't listed. I'm running 142.0.01.

I know FF is trying to please all the wonderful teenagers who want to constantly screw around with software settings. But it would be really nice if such new "features" were not turned on automatically.

Hello, any best practices for converting Firefox bookmarks once they're exported? The exported_bookmarks.html are an html file which are impossible to edit. Converting so the data for folders, titles and urls can be edited is what's needed.

I tried Vi with some Regex code, however the cleaned file is not so clean.

Amazon (either UK or US) has suddenly stopped loading properly on Firefox - there's no main top menu or header, instead there's a text list down the LHS (see screenshots). This first happened yesterday (14 Sept 2025) and it's still the same today. It works OK on MS Edge, so it looks like the've changed something which Firefox no longer recognises.

hello https://qrsj-map.lzhailalu.com/ black screen https://www.1024tera.com/ white screen, not loading

tested on Firefox 141.0.3, 142.0.1 and nightly 144 new profile, default settings, no addons, normal and private mode

Brave 1.77 working in both normal and private mode

the problem caused by certificate & certificate give cors error

1st website asked to trust certificate, after i did website loaded with black screen cuz cors blocked resources from loading, the certificate didnt carry over to sub domain https://n-cdn.lzhailalu.com/snow4/2/2/1.webp if i click this i get Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead to trust same certificate this website was lacking r10 lets trust certificate, if im not mistaken it should be replaced with ISRG Root X1 & ISRG Root X2

2nd website certificate was auto verified but cors kicked in blocking resources like this one https://s3.teraboxcdn.com/fe-static/fe-v5-web-index/js/index.b81a2a8e.js clicking this give Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead to trust digicert check my screenshots

i tested some cors addons on other profiles but couldnt bypass it

we need a fix, this is just 2 examples, theres many websites that certificate and cors ruin them, ppl test their websites on chrome thats why firefox need workaround for certificate and cors to work like chrome.

please dont tell me it simple just trust certificates cuz i figured out the problem, that not a solution, brave worked out the box, so thats mean for every website i visit i need to ckeck console for errors

and not switching firefox to brave or chrome, i only use them when firefox fail me in media or websites give me errors, i used firefox for so long and im not going to switch

if theres no proper fix, i need a way to disable certificate, cors or both permanent even if i have to edit omnija, just show me the way, please

Good day On this website kwv.co.za and specifically here: https://kwv.co.za/kwv-brandy/ When I click a product the browser does absolutely nothing but it does show the url link in the bottom of my desktop as per usual link behaviour. I then have to literally refresh the page or browse away and return here before the links work. This is specific to Firefox. I have tried everything I can to solve this to no avail. Can anyone shed light on ths please Regards
