If I have vertical tabs enabled, and tabs sidebar uncollapsed it will unexpectedly change to collapsed if I reorder a tab via drag and drop. See attached gif.

Firefox 143.0 (aarch64) MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1 (24G90)

After a recent update, my address bar behaviour change so much that it's making Firefox unusable for me.

The behaviour I want and what I used to have: - I start typing into address bar, I select the highlight (search or history result usually) - I press Cmd + Enter, the highlighted result opens in a new tab.

Now, what I get is: - The halfway typed text gets selected and turned into a url, for example if I want Reddit and I type "red", it opens https://www.red.com/ ?? - It does NOT open a new tab

I think now Option key behaves kind of similar to how Cmd key used to behave. I was on the 128 ESR release for a long time, so it might have change a while back.

How can I get back my Cmd key behaviour, to behave like Option now?

Hello,

After a recent Firefox update, I've noticed a new behavior with pinned tabs. When the browser window is not maximized, scroll arrows appear next to the pinned tabs if they don't all fit. These arrows disappear when the window is maximized.

I would like to disable these tab scroll arrows and revert to the previous functionality where the pinned tabs would simply shrink to fit the available space.

Is there a setting, perhaps in about:config, to completely turn off this tab scrolling feature for pinned tabs?

Thank you for your help.

After updating to 143, my pinned tabs are grouped together and need to be scrolled through. There's a lot of space on the right side, which is very inconvenient. I can't find a way to disable this feature or even increase the pinned area. Green is free space, red is where you can scroll.

Tabs Dan be saved individually. But tabs can be gathered and saved to a tab group. Can we save the tab group like individual tab in bookmark or else, so that the tab group can be easily restored when the Firefox is closed.

Hey , I’m hoping someone here can help me figure this out. Firefox has been acting weird for the past couple days. A couple of my tabs keep reloading themselves for no reason. I didn’t change any settings, no extensions were added, and there are no error messages. I already tried clearing the cache and restarting, but it’s still happening.

Has anyone run into this before or know what might fix it? Thanks in advance . Matthew Mahgerfteh

I really like the possibility of unloading tabs but still have them visible as I need to be able to backtrack some searches which are many levels deep. One thing I have discovered however, is if the tabs are grouped, you cannot unload them and that poses a problem for me as I have many many tabs that live in various groups across my tab bar. Is there any way of unloading these tabs while they reside in a group or is there a workaround I have not thought of yet?

Cheers and thanks everyone for your support and suggestions ....

I had so many instances of firefox and tabs that i decided i must organize them on tabgroups, i read they were secure enough and would be restored along with open tabs on new session. But after restarting all my "close and save" tab groups are missing! are they still saved? how can i recover them?

Not performing as it should. I have Windows 11 on PC. Open in a new tab should always show above open a new window. When I click on a link that is above the halfway point on the page I never see or have the option to open in a new tab. Open in a new window always is at the top.

If I am on a new page and the link is above the halfway point on the page I can't scroll the page down to have the link below the halfway point. If I am am on a page that I can scroll the link below the halfway point, Open in a new tab will show above open in a new window.

How can I get a new page with a link above the halfway point to have open in a new tab show? I have Firefox 146.0 (64-bit). It is up to date.

Hi guys,

Just yesterday I had everything working fine, and today out of nowhere any time I close my browser trough X it resets back to default page and all my pinned browsers or unpinned just disappear.. It works with exiting trought shortcut or meniu, but it little annoying, I tried solutions provided in the treads but is there no way to revert back to just using X for exiting and have your previously closed tabs saved and restored upon opening app again?

There was no updates installed or any other changes made to my pc today. So it is very strange why out of the blue its like this right now.

I tried: 1. Troubleshoot mode (did not work) 2.I tried exiting trought shortcut/meniu exit (worked but not prefered solution as it will be very easly forgotten for split second and all tabs open will reset) 3. Tried unchecking reseting firefox and checking the box again (did not work)

Lost at this stage as I really loved using Firefox.

Firefox version 145.0 in Linux Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS. When I open Firefox all tabs from previous session are gone. On "Startup" I have checked "Open previous windows and tabs". Which worked before but not now. It is very frustrating. How do I fix? The Profile Manager opens the settings and "Open previous windows and tabs" is checked. Checking "ask before closing multiple tabs" doesn't help.

When the YouTube shorts tab is open, if I want to open another tab, it immediately starts scrolling. When a shorts show starts, I click the "plus" button and it immediately scrolls down. I hope you get the idea.

Version 145.0.1.

It's a helpful feature I'm sure for some users to be able to drag a tab onto another tab and have it auto-create a tab group for you.

However I have been dragging tabs to reorganize their order in the window my whole life. Now, they are all of a sudden creating tab groups.

Example (one of many) I order my amaz*n shopping tabs by item price to compare.

I would like to turn this "drag to create tab group" OFF (back to the old behavior).

Note: it can be confusing: there's a new feature detailed in the blog: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/tab-groups-updates/ which is dragging a tab onto a tab GROUP. I am NOT asking about that. I'm asking about dragging one tab on top of another which are NOT YET IN A GROUP and having firefox CREATE a NEW group triggered by that action.

In about:config searching for "drag" the only things I can see are

browser.tabs.dragDrop.createGroup.delayMS 240 browser.tabs.dragDrop.expandGroup.delayMS 350 browser.tabs.dragDrop.moveOverThresholdPercent 80 browser.tabs.dragDrop.pinInteractionCue.delayMS 500 browser.tabs.dragDrop.selectTab.delayMS 350

But I can't make any sense of those.

(Dang forum no way to edit. I had to recreate ... :'(

I’m new to Firefox and found the Textfox theme on GitHub, which is pretty cool. However, I’m having trouble with the pinned tab size, they’re too small. It seems the theme’s creator fixed this by using Sidebery, but I don’t want to use that extension. Is there a way to change the pinned tab size without Sidebery?

Hi, I set up the vertical tabs and I like them. However they're very unstable and so is the tab sidebar. The expand on hover feature only works for a short time. Then the x to close a tab disappears and the sidebar gets stuck open or closed. If it gets stuck open, it covers the settings and AI and history sidebars so I need to close it manually to use them. Yesterday I lost 3 of my 6 pinned tabs. After closing and opening FF, they were just gone.

Also my tab groups will suddenly disappear. This started in the previous version and still happens, and I lose the sites I had collected. Plus FF has been very slow to load.

So yesterday I gave up and reverted to horizontal tabs. Like magic FF suddenly worked perfectly and very fast. I'm not enough of a techie to have any idea of what is causing what and would really appreciate any advice.
