Two days ago I closed FF and went to bed. I opened it the next morning and lost about 20 tabs. Ever since then, every time I restart FF, I lose all tabs except for one default tab.

TLDR: 1. "restore previous session" is not available. 2. Toggling Settings/Home and Startup does nothing. 3. Update? My FF automatically updates. 4. "about:sessionrestore" finds nothing,

1. FF help said I could go into History and click "Restore Previous Session" but that option doesn't exist. All I can do is look at History and see lists for today, yesterday, last 7 days etc.

2. Another advisory suggested Settings, Home and Startup, select "Open previous windows and tabs". but it was already selected. So I switched it off, restarted FF and then switched it back on. I still lose all tabs every time I restart FF.

3. Another advisory suggested, checking for updates. My FF automatically updates.

4. I tried "about:sessionrestore" It returns with the heading: "Sorry. We’re having trouble getting your pages back." Restore session is greyed out and "View previous tabs" produces an empty list. I've tried it a few times now, identical result.

Thanks for any help. Cheers, Andrew

See title. On ultra-wide, I would use split view with 4 or 5 tabs regularly if it was available. Please consider adding that function. Also, please add a dark mode to your support site.

I am wondering if there is a setting somewhere in Firefox to automatically close tabs after a certain length of time or after there are a certain number of tabs open. I did not close Firefox. I was working on a text document in TextEdit and when I returned to Firefox, all of my tabs were gone! How can I deisable that if there is such a setting? This is a very vexing problem. Please advise. Please forward this to a supervisor for a quick and complete response. The representative I chatted with earlier forwarded my inquiry to Apple Support for an expensive subscription, which I do not want. Thank you.

After recent updates there is a line in my open tabs list, currently below the first five open tabs. Why is it there? How can I make it go away? I'm using MacOS 11.7.11, Firefox 158.0.

Sorry if this problem have already solved before.

After update 158, I've noticed change of closing tabs when it involve unloaded and unopened tabs. I'll try my best to explain: Pre-update 158 - For example, I have 3 tabs. Left-hand is an unopened tab with coloured icon and no image preview. Middle one is I'm currently on. Right-hand is has been opened but I unloaded it; it has grey icon. When I close the current tab, the browser moves to tab on the right and loads it. This is usual behaviour since I started using Firefox long time ago.

After update 158 - Same example as above but when I close the current tab, the browser moves to one on the left instead.

This change means that the browser no longer moves to right-hand tabs if they're unloaded unless if I choose manually. Also, if I have 4 tabs but #1 is unopened with coloured icon, #2 is unloaded with grey icon, #3 is current tab and #4 is unloaded with grey icon. If I close the current tab, #3, it goes to #1 automatically.

So is there something in config to restore back to previous behaviour?

Bonjour, j'ai perdu beaucoup de temps aujourd'hui car mes onglets ont disparu sans savoir pourquoi. Je les ai tous recréé mais en fermant Firefox, les onglets ont de nouveau disparu. Qu'est ce qui se passe? c'est très irritant. L'option de conserver les onglets est activée, mais il semble que votre browser est complétement instable en ce moment. Pouvez vous m'orienter rapidement vers une solution? c'est vraiment pénible comme problème

I think this started 1 or 2 days ago, after a Firefox update. When clicking on a bookmark and using "open in new tab", anew tab isn't opened. The wanted bookmark page just replaces the earlier screen, and no new tab is made.

I had to restart my computer for updates so I clicked on my container and closed it thinking it was like closing a program and then re-opening it. Now it's gone and several hours research with it. Is there any way to restore a closed container?

如题，请问如何跨设备同步标签页群组？ 现在似乎只能跨设备同步已经打开的标签页，但是无法同步标签页群组。

As the title suggests, may I ask how to synchronize TAB groups across devices? It seems that now only open tabs can be synchronized across devices, but TAB groups cannot be synchronized.

How can I set a different home page for each container tab? It seems the default option is the same 1 home page regardless of which container tab it's in. But if I truly want to separate work vs. home by use of container tabs, then I'd like to default to different home pages.

This is new behaviour. I havent been playing with the settings, so I imagine its come as a side effect of an update...?

Very frustrating since I have come to rely on having 6 permanent tabs which I use every day for new, prices, weather etc...

Why do you developers keep ruining this browser with all this tab-editing bs? Reopen tab, collaps tab, move tab, add split view, add tab to group....? I don't need any of this crap, and now everytime I move one of the tabs like in the past, it either dissapears or splits up into a mess. I know the world has started enshitifying itself. You don't need todo the same, Firefox. Shame

Как сделать так чтобы при открытии ссылок с панели закладок они открывались в новой вкладке а не в той которой уже что то открыто,типо если у меня активная вкладка ютуб и я хочу открыть твич то при нажатии на твич закладку он откроет в вкладке ютуба тем самым ютуб пропадет и все пипец.В настройках не нашел чет насчет этого ничего,если это нельзя поменять то я ржу и удаляю этот браузер

Despite re-installing Firefox sidebar is still missing (I spent 3 full days trying to fix it before re-installing). I also can't obtain another tab - I'm restricted just to the one page I'm currently using
