Firefox Community Forum

There is a session with 15 important tabs. Previously, all 15 tabs were restored when closing and then opening.

But now, when closing and opening, the following happens: 1) The first time you click on Mozilla startup, nothing opens.Clicking again opens the home page.And everything. 2)When you click on launch, the home page opens.And everything.

In both cases, pressing Ctrl+Shift+t restores the previous session with 15 tabs.

The error appeared unexpectedly.There were no critical sorties.Mozilla's version is the latest.Tell me how to fix it.

Restore Previous Session. I did like I have in past and read on support but that line isn't in my choices...my win 11 just did an update but Firefox didn't recover sme as my chrome.. Restore the previous session from the Firefox menu

Restore the previous session from the Firefox menu

Here's how to get back your tabs and windows from a previous session using the Firefox menu:

   Click the menu button  to open the menu panel.
   Click History, then click Restore Previous Session.

few days ago, i was trying to remove unimportant entries from the browsing history section. i discovered that my delete button wasn't working and no entry was being deleted, not even when i was trying to remove using the mouse right side button. at first, i thought the delete button of the keyboard has become faulty. but i found that it was working fine in other apps or parts of the Windows OS. so i tried again removing the entries but couldn't do it. then i closed the firefox browser and reopened it. to my horror, i found that all entries before November in the firefox history section have just disappeared. nothing is there. i felt very much shocked and sad because there were lots of important entries which i have stored for almost two years. now i don't know how to restore my lost history entries. just because of some errors in the firefox program, i have lost my long saved entries. please suggest me how to restore it.

Since the settings haven't given that option for years, the best way to have a local file as the new tab page was using autoconfig.cfg + autoconfig.js, as described in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1251199 But since the most recent update (v136.0), this stopped working.

The New Tab Override add-on has its own issues with using local files (can only load a .html file, no local CSS/JS, can't give a blank address bar for me to search in), so it doesn't solve the issue either.

This is very important to me, and others have been asking for this feature back for years. It feels awful to have the working solution stop working, in the browser that's supposed to be open and customizable.

I use the Zen browser and I can't use ctrl+shift+c to view the element, I deleted the shortcut specified in the settings for copying the page URL so that the inspector would work, but it doesn't work, although the correct shortcut is indicated when hovering, but it doesn't work

I don't fully remember when this happened, but lately the browser has trouble clearing my search history even though I had it set so that it does so every time I close it. I only managed to fix it by making it so that it doesn't remember the search history, but some of the old searches are still there whenever I punch in part of what I was searching.

I have noticed Firefox is ignoring the max_pages and transient max_pages settings, both set to 999999 and still deleting browsing history after 2-3 months here.

What can be done? Is there a way to get the developers to fix this so it stops deleting, ideally by adding a boolean setting?

For whatever reason, a few days ago Firefox quit opening previous windows and tabs on startup.

And yes, ""Open previous windows and tabs" in Settings is checked.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Why are my 3 rows of Home page tabs now so small? I can go to about:config, search for browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabLayouts.variant-b and change to false and tabs are back to large. However, they soon revert back to very small. How can I keep them large?

The icons on my home page suddenly became significantly reduced in size. Sure, I can tell what they are, and I've increased the text size for their identifiers below the icons. But they are now so small as to be not pleasing to the eye. How can I put them back the way they wuz?

w11 on laptop. Cleaned PC using CCleaner. Restarted windows. Launched Firefox and only 1 tab with calendar opened. Went to History but no indication of the previous session available. ?
