OPEN ALL RECENT TABS - Not working!!

I keep tabs up on a Window when I do "research". I will minimize the Window or at some point Close the window eventually and I EXPECT MY TAB HISTORY TO BE THERE UNTIL I TELL FIREFOX TO CLOSE THEM!!! My choice!! That's #1.

  1. 2 - too often because of the above, I must go to History to "RE-OPEN all tabs" Too often - Clicking "Re-open all tabs" Does NOT work!!! Even if it's 5 minutes later???

when they should not have been closed in the first place. Poor function now requiring me to RE-sign in to what ever websites "G-mail" "Facebook" other stuff - I had on my Window and re type in all the work I already had up and ready to get back to work on.

This "tool" that supposedly wants me to use it that it's main function is "to make my life easier" does NOT get to waste my time over and over again. Used to work great - NEW IMPROVED FIREFOX SUCKS!!

Sick of this poor function.

Thank ONLY you "volunteers" for helping me. NO THANKS to FireFox NOT offering tech support or any customer service. am 2 secs away from moving to full Google Chrome (which I hate too) or any other browser.

I understand the case of when you close a window. You can use this menu to restore the closed window:

  • "3-bar" menu button > History > Recently Closed Windows
  • (menu bar) History > Recently Closed Windows

When you minimize a window, shouldn't it still be available to maximize? As a Windows person, I can't tell you where to look for it on Mac OS, but is it listed on the "Window" menu on the top bar so you can activate it from there?

You also can check the Firefox View screen. Either:

  • click the file drawer icon at the left end of the tab bar
  • type or paste about:firefoxview in the address bar and press Return to load it

On the left side, click Open Tabs. Then on the right side, there should be a box for each open window.

Helpful?
