Hi. I use firefox version 133.03 (64 bit) and have issues when on x.com's website. It will randomly open new tabs constantly. I have tried multiple options with settings on firefox and my pc, blocked new windows from opening, and disabled pop-ups. Checked my extensions and tried disabling all and that did not affect anything. I have run scans for viruses, malware, etc., and nothing comes up.

Any advice? It gets pretty annoying having to close the repeating tabs to be able to view the site.

help me restore all tabs if possible, there were more than 200 tabs i need to restore them. i tried to restore them through journal and other profiles but there were empty tabs there too.

Good Day,

I am leaving Brave as my default browser for Firefox.... Brave is good, just would prefer Firefox. I used to love it.

The problem is...I have a theme on Brave and Chrome that I love dearly. Is there a way to bring that theme to Firefox? I tried using Firefox Color, but it looked awful.

PS: I am the tech Village Idiot so please talk to me in that vein ;)

Thank you and Warmest Regards, Alisa (Stormwolfe)

I have set the option to "Open previous windows and tabs" at Startup. But sometimes when I restart Firefox it starts out blank. Then I looked into how I could restore previous session but contrary to the article below, I couldn't find "Restore Previous Session" option under Settings/History. Please advise what I am missing. Thanks.

I have over 2000 tabs stored in multiple tab groups using the Legacy extension "TAB GROUPS" in Firefox 56. I recognize this is out of date and I was going to migrate the tabs to the current version. I was unaware that Tab Group would no longer be verified as of March 14. I need to save all of the tabs in TAB GROUPS to favorites. Is there someway to temporarily enable TAB GROUPS so I can recover the websites? Is there a session file that has the websites that I can access? Help - I am in desperate need!

Why does firefox insist on opening hot links in the same window?

No matter what I change in the Settings all of the hot links keep opening in the same window.

All,

Noticed a major problem in Fire Fox, that must be corrected! I usually have 2-20 FF sessions open and 5-20 tabs also open in each FF session. FF used to let you see up to about 15 tabs, displaying them and responsively compressing the width of the tabs,to let you see what is open, but now it only displays 3 tabs, requiring you to actually scroll right or left to find the tabs open.

Totally unacceptable! This maybe OK for NEWBIES, but we pros and Developers need to see everything without scrolling to find it.

Otherwise I totally need a different Browser!

Due mostly to upgrades in the app software, it's necessary to restart Firefox on occasion. Also, it's necessary due to OS upgrades. While the Restore Previous Session is a wonderful feature, it arbitrarily (and properly, by default) forgets all of the Private Tabs. But, there are times when I'd like to save some or all of the Private Tabs I've got open. A 'settable' feature to 'Remember Private Tabs during Restart' would be a tremendous asset at times.

I recently updated to Firefox 135.0 on MacBook Pro, Catalina, OS 10.15.7 In the past, with multiple Firefox windows open & multiple tabs open in each, when restarting, "reopen pages on startup" selected, system loaded & ready to go, I'd find all windows, tabs & history available upon launching Firefox. Since update to 135.0, shut down & restart, launch Firefox and I find a single blank new window, no multiple windows, no tabs, no history. I've tried to find [Settings] to make everything come back - no joy, to no avail. Suggestions? Help? Thanks, JS

The browser always refreshes the website page by itself, opening the page and switching the browser to the backend or foreground but resting the screen for a while will force the page to refresh, and data that has been entered but not submitted is lost.

At first I thought it was a wrong setting or a problem with the extension. After I reinstalled it, it still occurs, and it happens with all versions (nightly version, iceraven and waterfox as well).

Looking into the information I thought it was the WebSocket live link that would automatically disconnect to save power, and network fluctuations as well. Disconnecting switches to the connection prompt screen, which looks like a refresh. Maybe my guess is wrong.

I currently mitigated this by modifying the "media.aboutwebrtc.auto_refresh.peerconnection_section" function to false to alleviate this, but it still forces the page to refresh.

Hi, Recently had to reset my Pc and on installing firefox I find that I am unable to keep open the tabs I use daily, I keep getting the -close 7 tabs - I do not want to close my tabs on closure. Firefox always used to close - No asking to close tabs - and when I reopen all my tabs were still tghere. Whats Changed?

I need last link I middle-clicked to open to the right of current tab. If I middle-click links 1,2,3 on page 0, I need tabs to be 0,3,2,1, instead FireFox places 3-rd link after the 2nd and 2nd after the 1st, resulting in 0,1,2,3. I tried changing browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent is "true". The only thing I found is https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-tabs-next-to-current/, but it interferes with "Clipboard to Tabs" addon and occasionally seems to not work.

FireFox behavior is also wildly inconsistent. It depends on whether I switched to these tabs and interacted with them. Some interactions cause it to forget they were "related".
