FF 150.0.1 - CTRL + 1 - this shortcut fails to work as designed

It not only does not change focus to TAB no. 1, but also does not focus the tab it does select. That the second part above occurs may be, as far as I know, how it always has worked.

Last week I downloaded the latest update for Firefox. After that I could not open websites I often use, such as etsy.com and ebay.com where I sell items. Also could not connect to Firefox Support. Yesterday, 4/19/2026 I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I have box selected to open new tabs instead of new window, however, when I click on a line from my email it opens new window which causes me to have to sign-in to my accounts again, multiple times today. Also, after the latest update I cannot use my main modem network, have to use another wifi network. Also a couple of times today when I open a tab it is trying to use the primary network and pages will not load. I need help in resolving issues caused from last weeks update. I know this is very long but felt I need to tell you what is happening so you'd better understand steps to take to resolve issues. Thanks for your help.

I usually have three tabs pinned for easy access. Upon using the new "add tab to taskbar" feature though, there's a problem.

If I use the button to pop out youtube music for example and then close the version of the browser that it came from, and that my pinned tabs are on, any subsequent times I try to open firefox won't keep the tabs pinned. This also happens if I attach youtube music to my taskbar permanently and try to open it from there and then try to open firefox regularly.

Not able to create new tabs on this Firefox browser on Home computer while the same is working fine on my handheld. The tabs are synced between the devices. Moreover, after I switched back from Vertical tabs to horizontal these issues cropped up and they are persisting after multiple browser restarts as well.

So, today I found that absolutely all of my tab groups have been wiped from existence. Not passwords, bookmarks, history, extensions or anything of the sort. Just tab groups specifically. Everything else in my profile is still here. I tried restoring from a backup using the Session History Scrounger at https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html but my closest backup was a March 26th one that is missing an entire tab group created after that date.

I tried searching other solutions to my issue, but nothing has worked so far. It doesn't have anything to do with updates as the last one happened on March 26th and I definitely used the tab groups after that point. I'm at a complete loss on what I am supposed to do, as I lost ~600 tabs combined across all groups
