I see no x on tabs to close; I see no "close tab" option in the menu when I right-click on a tab; I see no close tab option in main menu.

1. How do I get the close tab button to show on a tab?

2. How do I close all tabs?

3. Where do I find a close tab command on menu?

4. How can I get to automatically close all tabs on closing?

5. Are there other ways of closing a tab?

Thanks.

This is exclusively an issue with the browser, right clicking on my desktop or on another application produces all the expected menu option with no error.

Can someone please help.. My passwords are saving. They auto fill...But before this latest version I had a few sites that I could ciIck on the bookmark and it would just open without having too log in.. I do have clear and delete cookies and history, but in previous versions these were in the exempt list so everything was saved. Would like that to still be in place both in private Firefox and normal.. This version has wiped out a lot of settings I assume I dont want to have to log in and go through check ups..Passwords and user details are there but not auto log in think there exception rule in previous version not sure where that is now

My browser plays a notification sound repeatedly. Possibly every time a window opens. It sounds so many times its annoying. The sound is the same as when I plug a device into my computer. Such as a mouse. But it happens as I open or close a window. And sometimes when it seems there's nothing visible happening. The sound occurs three or four times in a row sometimes.

I am trying to pull up the list of the subscriptions and auto payments I have on Paypal. All the other pages on the site display correctly. Microsoft Edge displays the page correctly.

I have attached two screenshots, the first is how Firefox shows it. the second is the correct display using Microsoft Edge.

Note the correct page shows a lot of offers on the right side with the list of payments icons on the left in proper form. The incorrect screenshot does not show the right side offer material at all . The layout of the text and icons are nothing like they should be.

Changing the magnification does not help as my other Paypal pages are affected and the result is just a smaller version of the incorrect page with the icons still offset and is not usable for it's intended purpose.. Also the text is to small to read.

When I first try to open the page it flashes momentarily on the correct view, then immediately goes to the bad view. Is it possible there is some "locking" factor missing when I get the flash display?

This started within the last 6 months. I suspect something about the page is not on the same criteria as Firefox. If no one else has seen this then I must have something inconsistent with that page.

I am running Firefox 145.0 on a Windows 10 desktop PC. Even though I am using an external Password Manager (DualSafe Password Manager), Firefox keeps asking to save passwords. When I look at the privacy & Security section in Settings, Ask to save passowrds is ticked and also greyed out. To access the setting, I have to disable DualSafe. The setting becomes accessible and unticked. I then re-enable DualSafe. If I then close Firefox, the setting is re-ticked and greyed out when I start Firefox again. Can anyone suggest how I can fix this?

Audio not working just in Firefox

Hi, I am using Firefox Developer Edition though I have had this problem with Firefox in the past. The problem is that sometimes the audio from Firefox just stops working, everything else in Windows works but not firefox, I tried having the same youtube video on Firefox and Chrome annd it worked on Chrome. There are times that a Windows restart fixes it and there are times that I just have to wait a couple of days till it fixes itself. The only thing I could find to trigger this behavior is to have mi Bluetooth earphones connected, then disconnect them and sometimes when reconnecting them the audio is just gone. This usually happens when I am working, when I start the day I put them on and start some music on Youtube, after 3-4 hours I do a 15 minutes break and during that time I charge the earphones, when I come back and turn them on again, most of the times the audio is gone. Is this a known issue or something? I can send anything if you want. Thank you

The problem seems to have started after a browser update. Running up-to-date Windows 10. This issue does not occur when using Edge. Youtube videos are blank (spinning). Sometimes it results is a still frame, other times it spins forever. Many times, you can see a series of stills in the video as the time line is dragged from the beginning to the end of the video. A small number of videos will work, but I have not been able to predict which will work or why. A different Win 10 machine on the same network is fine. I have tried all of the solutions I could find searching on-line (clearing cache, cookies, reboot, restart, update browser software, etc, multiple times). Checked settings in windows, firefox and youtube looking for something. Any help would be appreciated. Have used Firefox for decades and I don't want to be forced to change browsers.

I have a computer with Windows 10 and I connect it to a Samsung TV with an HDMI cable. The image plays correctly, the speakers seem to be Samsung's, but while the Windows sounds are heard correctly on the TV, the sounds from the web environment, e.g. Youtube, are only heard on the computer. What settings can I make in Firefox to solve the problem?
