yesterday I updated firexfox to its latest version.

after that, the tabs aren't showing properly anymore.

as I use my computer for work and leisure I usually keep a few separate tabs open, and up until yesterday, when I clicked, or hovered, over the firexfox icon in the taskbar, it would show me a preview of the individual tabs I had open, then to see the windows open in each tab I needed to click on the relevant tab.

since the update yesterday though, when I click, or hover, over the firexfox icon, insted of the tabs, it shows me ALL the window open, in what is now a chaotic and disorganised mess. the tabs are still separate in reality, if I minimase a tab, I can see the other tab open on the screen, but I now don't have access to them anymore as I should normally by the firefox icon, as it only show ALL the window open regardless of tab.

this is an incredibly disturbing problem, expecially when I have to use firefox for my studies and I have serveral research papers and resources open at once, and divived in tabs for ease of navigation.

while I still can access to the individual tabs through 'alt+tab' and scrolling with three fingers on the mousepad, this is still a massive issue that only arised with the update done yesterday.

is there any way to fix this?

thank you kindly in advance.

Firefox 112 Mint Linux

The web site for my VOIP company lets me set phone numbers as "contacts" via a web form.

I started getting an error message along the lines of "Error Adding Contacts".

I restarted Firefox in --safe-mode, the site worked.

I restarted Firefox in normal mode. I then turned off each extension, one by one, refreshing the form. I ended up turning them all off and the contact form stayed broken.

What else does --safe-mode turn off besides the extensions?

Thanks.

After restarting my pc, signed in on another windows account, which does not have Firefox installed. Then, signed in to my account, opened Firefox (Developer Edition 112.0b9 (64-bit)), however, all of the tabs, pinned tabs and history were gone. Can't restore from the menu, can't restore from the Profile folder, because files in it were overwritten when I signed in to my account (according to time modified). Anybody been in the same situation? Any advice? Thx

Every once in a while I'll visit a website that, even tho you scroll to what you think is the bottom of the page, when you approach that point, you see the scroll button jump up, and there is further room to scroll.

It happens occasionally on YouTube, but elsewhere as well.

I think I remember somewhere that there is a workaround for this, but first I want to understand if this is by design, perhaps because it's a way of restraining the given site from loading too much content at one time, causing CPU overload, leading to related issues.

Firefox hangs up when I go to access my monthly statements on Wealthscape - the site my IRA is on. This is the only website this happens with. When I emailed them about this they said I should use Chrome or Edge. This seems illogical to me, since I can download tax documents and all other info from this same site.

I will get a notification of a reply to a message or comment I posted and when I go there, the comment is either blank or it comes up for 1 second, then disappears. Also, sometimes when I click on a notification, it says "Your request cannot be completed..." or something similar.

What I've done: Turned off new add-ons, because it worked previously with my core add-ons. No add-ons have updated in the past two days. Cleared cache Updated FF Closed and restarted FF

Everything on FB works perfectly on Chrome. Since I also have a lot of trouble with forms and captchas on FF, I have to use Chrome to visit any site where I am going to have to fill out a form or use a captcha. That is, IF the site even loads, and I don't get a "this site can't be found" from FF.
