I took advantage of Tab Groups to organize my work by Client (saving and closing tab groups is great to save memory and still get back to where I was later on). You now came up with the 'Containers' functionality, so I want to separate work from personal stuff. I tried but found that you can't move a whole Tab Group to a Container, you have to move individual tabs and that causes them to be duplicated - a copy stays where it was and a copy is set inside the Container. It would now be great if you had an option to add the whole Tab Group to a Container (similar to how you can add tabs to Tab Groups) instead of doing by tab. Hopefully you can add this functionality on the next version. Can you add an option to move a complete Tab Group to a Container (option by right-click)?

Not sure if it's a feature or a bug, but I noticed that if I 'save and close' a tab group containing an 'empty' tab, i.e. the about:newtab page, the tab does not get restored when the group is opened again. Before I was using tab groups, I often used these empty tabs as a crude method of separating bunches of tabs from each other. I have some large tab groups, open on the tab bar, that still contain these, as I have never closed them since they were created. (They're just collapsed.) I was planning on closing them sometime, after I'd next reviewed their contents, but now I'm not too keen on that! So, just wondering, is this empty tab deletion a bug or a feature? If the latter, what's the rationale?

Hi all,

Sometimes Firefox just closes a couple dozens tabs - I keep around 200 or 300 open - without my request or confirmation. It's not frequent, but quite annoying. Clicking History > Recently closed tabs > Reopen all tabs does not restore all. I don't know where I can find references for the lost tabs or Firefox logs where I could check what happened. My only suspicion is that I inadvertently rest my hand or finger somewhere in my notebook's trackpad, and somehow Firefox understand that as a request to close several tabs at once, but I have no clue if that makes any sense. I didn't test in Safe Mode because this happens too unfrequently for me to tell if Safe Mode avoids the problem.

Could you pls help me finding the reason for that? Does Firefox keep any kind of log I can check? Are there any keboard shortcuts or mouse/trackpad action that can be set up to do this?

Firefox version: 153.0.1 Distro: Linux Mint Version: 21.3 (Virginia) (Based on Ubuntu 22.04 - Jammy) Kernel: 5.15.0-186-generic

Thanks!

As I run my hand up the lid of my lap top, I OFTEN hit the "X" on the browser and the PAGE CLOSES! I am so frustrated because all my tabs close and I see no way to get them all back open. WHY NOT? I know how to use "HISTORY" and under thT i USED TO BE ABLE TO TAP "RECOVER ALL TABS" i DON'T KNOW WHAT BROWSER that was... And if you had that option, I don't know what happened to it.

Can you enable members to pin there folders and pages in the bookmark bar so that it looks neater and can fit more pages and folders etc, even multiple pages and folders together same as the tab bar,

also allow more power to open and use more tabs at the same time upto as many as will fit on page, 50?

i use manual traffic exchanges, which i have to surf and change tabs regulary and faster to surf more manual traffic exchange websites, we need this to build up free advertising credits to promote our programes and business opportunities.

Also can i add all my GMAIL, yahoo mail and notepad accounts together in 1 fixed pinned dropdown tab instead of using up multiple tabs.

I have MozillaFirefox-140.4.0-150200.152.207.1 on OpenSuse Leap 15.6. In my "Settings" under General and Startup I have always had the option "Open previous windows and tabs" checked.

This just started happening recently. After the first time it happened, I restored everything by searching through "History" and recreating the tabs and windows. Everything seemed OK for a few days then it happened again.

Tab group name's width get maximized after dragging it to other place. Please refer to the third tab group from the image. If I restart the browser, the width become normal until I drag n drop it again.

In the tabs setting there is a box for when you open a new tab it does not immediately go to it. Both my middle click and right click open new tab both instantly send me to the new tab window even with the setting off. The setting does nothing for me, plz help me fix this i just downloaded firefox and this is a big problem for me. thanks

Every time I open Firefox, the checkbox next to "Opening links in tabs" always disappears, even though I've checked it in previous sessions. How can I make it permanent?

I use Firefox on the Linux Mint operating system.

When I restart Firefox on my PC, many tabs in at least one window will be moved from their position. Usually to the end of open tabs within that window. I've been dealing with this for years and never heard a response from anyone else. It is very annoying as many of my tabs are set up in a sequence. I have to find the first one, manually select them all, and then use the command to move them to the start of the window.

I am trying again to see who else has experienced this problem and if there are solutions for it.

Today after i restarted my laptop (windows) and then I started firefox all the pinned and also the normal tabs were gone. I tried to follow different indications about restoring the previous session, but nothing showed up. All the tabs are gone.

As I need these tabs and this is obviously an issue of the software, PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP.

Is not possible that this happens every 1-2 months.
