Until the most recent version(s) (at least through 148), if I have multiple windows open, the restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) would open a closed tab in the previous window it had been closed in. Now, it opens the tab in whichever window I currently have focus on. It also used to remember the tab's previous location with regards to order among other tabs; now it opens it at the end of all tabs.

Example: I have two windows open, window A and window B. Window A has 5 tabs; window B has 10 tabs. I close tab 3 of Window B.

Old behavior: Pressing restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) would cause the closed tab to always open in window B regardless of which window currently had focus, and would open it between tabs 2 and 4, as tab 3 again.

New behavior: Pressing restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) will now cause the closed tab to open in whichever window has focus, A or B, and open as the last tab; for instance, if I am in window A, it will open as tab 6, if I am in window B, it will now open as tab 10, instead of tab 3.

Is there any way to restore the old behavior? At the very least, to get the windows to separate out the restore tab lists? I don't want tabs restoring to incorrect windows.

Recently updated from 148 to 152 and it has added these dropdowns to both the address and search bars (see below screenshot) that require additional clicks to get past that I do not want. Ideally I would not have these (or would maybe have the search drop down appear AFTER the search field itself).

Behavior I don't want: searches to appear in address bar. Behavior I don't want: search drop down to appear in address bar at all. I require a clear delineation in my workflow for things I have actually visited (addresses) and things I am planning to visit (searches). Behavior I don't want: search drop down to appear in search bar between address bar and search bar (one tab click should take me from address bar to search bar - now it takes two tab clicks because of this drop down).

Resolutions I have tried: Going to "Settings > Search Engine Suggestions" and completely unclicking "show search suggestions". Going to "about:config" and setting the following fields to false: browser.urlbar.suggest.searches keyword.enabled browser.fixup.alternate.enabled

None of these actually remove the dropdown entirely from either the address bar or search bar.

How do I remove these drop downs aside from downgrading back to 148?

I manage a gaming website called TomodachiLifeROM, and I often use Firefox for Android to review pages, publish updates, and test the mobile experience.

I've noticed that performance can slow down when I have several tabs open while editing content.

I'd appreciate your advice on the following:

Which Firefox settings can improve browsing performance on mobile? Are there any recommended privacy or performance settings for everyday use? Does disabling certain features help reduce memory usage? What are the best ways to keep Firefox responsive when working with multiple tabs? Are there any add-ons that are useful for website testing on Firefox Mobile?

I'm looking for recommendations based on real-world experience from Firefox Mobile users.

Thank you!

I download my share of media using BitTorrent with Pirate Bay. Just lately, every time I attempt to download something I get redirected to a page, https://ultimatesurferprotector.com/lp5.php, that tries to sell me a VPN and I can find no way to stop this or contact them. I am happy with the VPN I have and have no interest in purchasing another. Does anyone know how I can prevent this from happening? Thank you.

Sir, Unable to connect

Firefox can’t connect to the server at eforms.assam.gov.in What can you do about it?

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Note:- I have connected my pc with wifi .Kindly solve the issue please.

Numerous tabs appear whenever I open Mozilla. I have used them at some time in the past, but never all on one occasion. SOME WERE LAST USED AT LEAST SEVEN MONTHS AGO.

Related may be that sometimes when I follow a link on one website, the destination appears on my screen as a new opening of Mozilla. The previous site(s) are completely obscured

I am having the problem a fix was created for previously where attempts to sign in to my google account continually redirect to a request to clear cache and cookies. Have done so multiple times, still can't log in. Can log in on Chrome so definitely a Firefox-specific issue.

We have resolved an issue with Google prompting users to ‘clear cookies and site data’ when logging in. A fix has been published, via Firefox remote settings that does not require a Firefox upgrade. Users will receive the update over the next 6hrs, if you would like to update immediately simply restart Firefox.

Note: The issue was related to CHIPS being enabled in Fx131, this feature has been temporarily disabled while we resolve the issues. Users who have disabled 'Allow Firefox to install and run studies' in Privacy & Security settings will need to enable to receive the update.

I am really excited by the possibility of a built in VPN on Firefox.

However I logged in to UK BBC Channel 5 and tried to view a programme,

I was able to browse content but as soon as I pressed Play for the first series of the drama the provider picked up that I was using a VPN and shut me down.

Is this a teething problem ans will it likely be fixed?

For some time now, it is not possible to log in to Facebook. One of the following two errors is returned in a loop: if I click on any of them, the other one comes up;

1. Your session timed out Please start again.

                                           OK button

2. This page isn't available at the moment This may be because of a technical error that we're working to fix. Please try reloading this page.

            Reload page button

Clicking any of the two buttons will go to the other window in a loop.

I have tried using Firefox in Safe mode, but nothing changed. No issues on Facebook on Edge or my Samsung phone.

Thank you for helping.

Hello Im using multiple firefox edition on my PC from beta dev to nightly, and recently in nightly and only nightly I've spotted strange issue that appears as window in window screenshot attached, outer x to close or maximize window does not work only the inner and mostly goes after F11 full screen and then return to normal. Troubleshoot mode and restart does not change or fix this.

I used to have many more icons on my toolbar. Since having to upgrade to Windows 11, the individual toolbar icons are huge! I can only get 6 on my toolbar, whereas on Windows 10 I have at least 11. Having to scroll down the bookmark list is time consuming and frustrating.

Suggestions?

I have already turned off the 3 or 4 different types of firefox suggestions in the settings. Did they add yet another one? I can't find anything about it in the settings. How can I be sure I never get a pop-up suggesting any sort of wallpaper again?
