I was excited to receive the new Tab Groups feature and am now disappointed that it's not working and I've 'lost' dozens of tabs.

Here's what I did: I created several groups by right-clicking and added tabs to each of the groups. Since it appears that only way to collapse a group is to "save and close group," I closed each group. Now they are all gone. When I right-click to create a new group or "add tab to group," the closed groups are nowhere to be found. Plus, I do not see a "list all tabs icon" on my toolbar to reopen the grouped tabs, which is what [article] says should happen.

Suggestions for making this work?

Just started using Waterfox on MacBook.

When I use <Command><Tab> to switch back to the application, although the icon does appear on far-left on the display of application icons, indicating it is the foreground application, the application does not appear in front of the other applications as is usual MacBook behaviour.

Running FF 138 64-bit on Win 10 Home, and tabs won't combine. When I move one tab over another, I get NO GLOWING RING, and the tabs just swap places as I move the first tab over the second one, no matter how slowly I move them. It doesn't work in Vertical Tabs, either.

It is still not working for me. Has the timeline been postponed? Is anyone else still unable to use this function?

Thank you!

The new native tab group feature has an option to "Save and close group", implying that you can restore the group. But doing this, you will find that the group disappears.

Is this a known bug? Has anyone figured out how to restore a saved tab group?

With the progressive rollout of tab groups having ended (I am assuming that because they are available by default in fresh installations), I would expect them to be available when I sync with my Firefox profile. However, when I sign in to the browser to sync all my settings, the option disappears. I am more interested in why the rollout never reached me than being told to enable tab groups in `about:options`. The profile switcher is also not showing up, but I am not sure if that is still in beta.

When the new Firefox version offered Tab Groups, I was enthusiastic. I have a huge number of open tabs reflecting all aspects of my life. What a disappointment to find now that all those individual tabs are still sitting there on the tab bar, just grouped. I need to COLLAPSE those groups, at least until I hover over or right-click the group icon. What a bother.

The article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups says (and shows a mockup animation) to drag a tab onto another tab to create a tab group. It also says the feature is being rolled out in v137 and will be available to all users by May 6.

It's May 8, and I'm using v138, but dragging a tab onto another tab just reorders the tabs.

What's the deal?

Hi! I'm currently on Mozilla Firefox's Version 138.0.1 for 64-bit Windows 11, but I don't have the new features for tab groups or profile customization. I checked for updates and disabled my extensions, and still no options for either of the new features appear. Is there a way I can get these features activated on my Firefox? Thanks!
