Is it possible to close all tabs and keep Firefox browser open? That is a feature I love about Opera, when you close the tabs you end up at the home page. I would love to see that option in Firefox, as it is my default browser. Thanks

Chosen solution

You could try this :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar :

browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab

and set its value to false

Then close and restart Firefox.
