Please consider optimizing the resource management while minimizing a tab group. This would be an amazing option to be included. If its already present in the tab groups inherent workflow, please add more documentation about its effects and more. Maybe adding optional workflows for a scenario of usage like a energy efficient usage button for a tab group is a great idea.

tabs I do not have open appear below search window, how can I stop that’ for ‘Firefox?

Sites I do have open are at the top, that's all I need, this extra vector of links I don't want now clutters by screen and may be using my resources.

Every time I try to close a window with a single tab, it notifies me that I'm about to close 2 tabs while having only one tab within that window. Kindly advise on the reason

Why won't Firefox open any new windows? I give ir the command to open a window and yet all i get are tabs and I never click on open a tab. I have an HP probook this for windows 10 and i am also having the same problem with Chrome. I have uninstalled and reinstalled chrome and that did not fix it so it is not that. What would cause this? I have already cleared the cache cookies history browsing etc. and nothing is fixing it. PLEASE HELP.

Maybe it is my spiritual guides because i obsses and have OCD and have too many tabs. But i started having tabs get deleted and i have no tabs on re-launch, tried to check, re-check this. I Am not sure if to reinstall because i don't want to lose passwords or setting/history (i don't remember now it should be saved) but usually reinstalling doesn't solve anything for me anyways...

I didn't install any new extensions when it started happening!

It doesn't happen every time so it is hard to troubleshoot, i cannot use browser with safe mode. I might test it couple times.

Hi!

Previously, all the sites saved in a single container could be accessed via the dropdown arrow to the left of the 'close,' 'minimize,' and 'maximize' buttons. Now, it only shows current tabs, tabs from other devices, close duplicate tabs, and add a tab to one of the containers. But how to open those containers is unclear.

PS I have the latest update 139.0.1

I love having the ability to group some of my tabs but I'm wondering if it's possible to create "subgroups" of tabs inside of a "group". For instance, it would be very confusing & even chaotic to have one tab group named "Computers" that has tabs for sites where I buy computers/parts/software, sites where I go to for support for my hardware/software issues, & sites where where I can read reviews about the up & coming new hardware/software. However, the chaos would go away if I could have 3 tab subgroups (Shopping, Support, & News) UNDER a "top level" tab named "Computers".

From what I've been able to find on the Firefox website, this capability is not yet available but I'm wondering if it's something that's currently in development. If not, I would like to suggest that it be seriously considered. I realize that some people could take this kind of capability to the extreme, with hundreds of tabs organized using multiple "sub-tiers" & trying to develop something to support the extreme cases would be a nightmare. However, the ability to even two levels (groups & 1 level of subgroups) would be a HUGE improvement over the current situation.

So, I recently encountered this problem: If I close the main Firefox window while a private window is open, then when I open a regular Firefox window, I find that all pinned tabs have been reset, and I have to set them again.

This problem has never happened before, so I figured it was clearly a new bug and I should report it.

I asked a friend, and yes, he also encountered this problem.rt it.

I did not ask for tab grouping. I do not want tab grouping. And then when browser grouped tabs without my requesting it to; and would NOT allow me a way to un-group them, providing only the option to "delete tab group", which when exercised deleted all the tabs, not just the group! Now, I don't f-ing want firefox anymore! Why act like microsoft and shove features down our throat without explanation or option to chose or not chose?

Can someone tell me why it is if I'm on a tab and either accidentally or on purpose click the home icon the tab will shut down, and be replaced by the home page? What type of backwards reasoning went into that feature? I've had this happen numerous times without intent, and sometimes with the intent to hit the home button and either way the same thing happens. If it weren't for the browser keeping a history, there are times I would be just out of luck, and have to suck it up. This is not a feature I want in a browser. Instead hitting the home button should forward the tab I'm on to the home page with the ability to back click to the tab I was on. Someone needs to re-think this feature. I would really like to have someone on the development team address this issue.

I really like the new tab group feature and I wondered if it would be possible to isolate tracking within a tab group. I didn't know about tab containers yet but it seems like a great feature to have the option to have a tab group also act as it's own tab container.

Are there any plans for integration between these two features?

I'm on the latest FF 140.0.1 on Linux and I adore tab groups, I'm using it more and more to organize my browser windows. I am using the default (horizontal) tab group layout. Because I have a lot of tabs in the window, I collapse each existing tab group and sort tabs between tab groups.

I can move a tab into an expanded tab group with drag and drop. But I tried dragging and dropping a tab onto a collapsed tab group, even holding it over the collapsed tab group to see if that would work. Nothing seems to register, is it possible?

I would like to move a tab by drag and drop without expanding the collapsed tab group and move the window focus to the next tab. This would save time when I am organizing tabs!

The alternative is to Add a tab to a collapsed tab group, which also expands it and consumes horizontal real estate, forcing me to scroll (further) to return where I was organizing tabs. So I collapse the newly expanded tab group, scroll back to the next tab I want to organize into a different tab group, and repeat but this causes a lot of scrolling navigation to my workflow. It makes complete sense and I really like using menu navigation to add tabs to a specific group because it is discreet and I wish I could move tabs with the same method.

I searched Settings > Tabs and then about:config for browser.tabs.groups.* (and then every preference with tab in it) and couldn't find anything that made sense to me.

Thank you for any help!
