Listing Tab Groups
Please can you (a) add to menus, or create a button, so users can see the tab groups they have created and (b) prevent upgrades to Firefox from deleting a user's tab groups.

The downward V in the right end of the toolbar offers the options of showing and accessing all of the Tab Groups.

Hi JoshuaRc - Thanks for this, but I haven't got a downward V anywhere in the browser window. When I right click on a tab, there is the option of saving to a new tab group, or one that is open, but the option to see all closed tab groups is greyed out. Looking in settings, there's nothing I can do to change that; this is in the current version of Firefox (refreshed about an hour ago).
Hi Phil,
This button is called "List all tabs", and it may have a different icon for you (a pile of tabs). If you don't see it next to your tab strip, right-click empty space, select Customize Toolbar..., look for it in the Customize view that opens and then drag it to wherever you like it to be,
To learn more about the menu, see Tab overview menu.
PS Note that you seem to be several versions behind: the latest release is v154, and you are on v151.
Hi Denys - Thanks for your reply.
151 was when I posted the request. I am now on 154. When I click List All Tabs, there is only one tab group listed, but I have created dozens of them. I think this is because of my point (b) i.e. Firefox doesn't retain them between restarts/upgrades. The one tab group is listed under the heading 'Recent Tab Groups', but there is no button or icon to click for older tab groups.
Hi Phil,
Can you check about:preference -> Home and startups, and see if Open previous windows and tabs menu is checked?
Mine can actually restore tab groups and I have that menu checked. I'm afraid if you might missed this setting.
Hi Kiki - Thanks for this. That option wasn't checked, so it now is. Next time I update I'll check it that works. Seems like it should. Phil
Great! There will be a new Firefox version later this week so feel free to update the thread once you can confirm.
