I use Tab Groups quite frequently. I am not a fan of the new functionality built into it.

So now if I close a group, one tab within that group will stay open if I was just on the page. It will not close until I go to another page and click close on the tab group again. Frustrating! Why cant I just open and close as usual?

Is there a way to get rid of this feature and still keep tab groups?

I have vertical tabs turned on. Say i want to watch a movie, i press F11 or fullscreen to open it fullscreen. It makes the whole page fullscreen, but the vertical tabs remain still on the left. I want that fixed so that vertical tabs are hidden when its fullscreen.

Hello- When I am on a website and click link I would expect and want a new Tab to open-- I want it to open it in a new Tab and leave the page I'm on alone so I can go back to the original page.

Instead, Firefox overwrites that page and the tab with the a new one, and I have to hit the back button to get back to that original page. And most often the back arrow button is grayed out and I can't get back at all.

In settings, I've tried checking the box for: 'Open links in tabs instead of new windows' but that doesn't do it. I've also tried checking the box, 'When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately,' and that doesn't do it either.

I know that a work-around is to hold down the Ctrl key while clicking a link, but I'd like to set it as a default so I don't have to do that. That's a pain and not a natural function when browsing. To be sure, I want to click on links and that creates a new Tab without Ctrl Keys.

Thanks!

Is there a way to disable tab groups without going through about:config? Because I can't find it and there really should be...I have no idea how that feature works, I don't want it, but I keep ending up with groups unintentionally. I still don't know how I'm doing it. It's incredibly annoying and apparently incredibly easy to accidentally trigger and I'm sick of losing tab space to these random colored boxes for no apparent reason!

I have been having an issue with Firefox acting up after taking a screenshot - it's not EVERY time, but I need to use screenshots enough that it's a noticeable issue.

After the screenshot is saved, suddenly clicking on tabs "selects" them with no way to "deselect" them. This prevents me from switching to a new tab and sometimes even stops me from typing in the search bar. I have found no fix for this other than force quitting or restarting my computer completely.

Any help or direction would be appreciated :)

Hello,

Since yesterday every time i reopen my Firefox it is not loading my tabs that I had opened in previous use "Open previous windows and tabs" setting is enabled/marked and I have not made any changes in settings myself for this issue to take place. I am not sure why did this start happening out to the blue. But I have noticed when I use exit button via 3 bar drop down menu and then reopen Firefox my open tabs are there but when I use the "X" (top right corner) and re launch Firefox my tabs are gone. Is this the new "feature" or am I missing something

Regards

Hi, Since the search open tabs function is part of the overflow button in a horizontal tab layout, when you switch to vertical tabs, you lose that search function. Is there a way to add it to my vertical tab layout? Thanks, Scott

I often hit ^T (control-T) in firefox without meaning to, because I use that chord in other applications a lot. In firefox it opens a new tab, which is almost never what I want. I'd like to suppress that keyboard shortcut. I tried doing it using vimium (unmap <c-t>) but that has no effect.

Thank you, Silvio

Every time I close and reopen the browser (and then check the Process Manager), all my pinned tabs are there and taking 20-30 megabytes each while I didn't click on them and they're supposed to be unloaded after startup

None of the unpinned tabs are in the Process Manager

How do i stop this?
