Firefox Community Forum

I have WhatsApp Web pinned as a tab in Firefox, and other than that I also have a home page. Normally when I launched Firefox, only one window would open and it would have both the pinned whatsapp tab and the homepage in another tab.

Since today, now when I launch Firefox it opens two separate windows. One window only contains the pinned WhatsApp Web tab, and the other window contains the home page.

How can I make it so that when I launch Firefox only one window opens that contains both tabs? Please don't tell me this option has been inadvertently removed.... Thanks.

I have Firefox set to reopen the previous session whenever the browser is launched. I normally have multiple windows open; I have different tabs in different windows so as to organize them and make it easier to access a particular tab / type of content. I can mouseover on the toolbar and select a tab via preview.

Until recently, whenever Firefox relaunched my previous session, it kept the arrangement of the windows intact (from right to left in the preview). After a recent update, I assume, Firefox is now no keeps them in the same arrangement; aside from my first window, all the others now randomly (or so it seems to me) rearrange themselves whenever the browser launches.

I can reorder them by selectively closing and reopening windows, but it's getting tedious, and the arrangement only lasts for the current session. Once I shut down and restart my computer the windows are, once again, rearranged to no apparent rhyme or reason.

This is getting really frustrating.

First, why does the "recently closed tabs" doesn't work if you close an entire firefox window?

second, why isn't there a place to search through your tab groups?

I just accidentally closed a firefox window with a lot of tabs, including unnamed tab groups.

This is a pain for all browsers, but firefox took it a step further.

There is a "recently closed tab" page which is really convenient, until you need it most when you accidentally close multiple ones. On top of that, I lost multiple unnamed group tabs.

Am I missing something, or is the experience still subpar? I've been a power user of firefox for years now, and I get why I get clowned by chrome users ngl.

As stated, when I close browsers usually some random group of tabs, usually at the starting left side, will be moved to the end of tabs. I need to go in and manually select them and send them to the start or manually move them. Sometimes another group that was to the right of the starting tabs shows up in front of those moved to the end. I have 4 working windows with multiple tabs open. When all are closed, say as to reboot, the last one I was in usually is the one effected. Happens probably 7 or 8 times out of 10 closings.

tab groups can't get a new groups to actually show up even though they show up in the title bar and does not have the box around the other preexisting tab groupings. am using windows 11 on a desktop. i suppose something got changed somehow, but i have no idea of why this started nor how no fix it. any and all help greatly appreciated! wolfgang

Hi, I've been using tab groups for a while and i had some pretty important tabs save there. I wanted to know if they get deleted after a while or not, Because all of mine suddenly disappeared. And also is there anyway to get them back?
