For some reason when I'm entering a url in the address bar it opens the site in a new window. I edited the about:config - browser.tabs.loadInBackground to TRUE and that didn't seem to work so I was playing around with browser.tabs.load....... setting to try and prevent switching to the newly opening tab. I thought I had solved it but then noticed when I was typing in he URL it caused a new tab to open up rather then using the current tab.

What are the correct settings for the about:config - "browser.tabs.load.." family of options to have an opening tab not automatically take focus when doing an "Open in New tab" from the bookmark menu and bookmark toolbar and have a typed in url address open in the current tab rather then opening it in a new tab?

Two days ago I closed FF and went to bed. I opened it the next morning and lost about 20 tabs. Ever since then, every time I restart FF, I lose all tabs except for one default tab.

TLDR: 1. "restore previous session" is not available. 2. Toggling Settings/Home and Startup does nothing. 3. Update? My FF automatically updates. 4. "about:sessionrestore" finds nothing,

1. FF help said I could go into History and click "Restore Previous Session" but that option doesn't exist. All I can do is look at History and see lists for today, yesterday, last 7 days etc.

2. Another advisory suggested Settings, Home and Startup, select "Open previous windows and tabs". but it was already selected. So I switched it off, restarted FF and then switched it back on. I still lose all tabs every time I restart FF.

3. Another advisory suggested, checking for updates. My FF automatically updates.

4. I tried "about:sessionrestore" It returns with the heading: "Sorry. We’re having trouble getting your pages back." Restore session is greyed out and "View previous tabs" produces an empty list. I've tried it a few times now, identical result.

Thanks for any help. Cheers, Andrew

Currently if a user selects to turn Desktop Mode on, it is a switch that turns it on across the whole browser. It stays on for each new tab or window that is opened in Firefox.

What I am proposing is an individual Desktop Mode switch for each tab/window, so that only one tab or window is affected. Any new windows or tabs that are opened will revert to the default Desktop Mode setting (user changeable).

Does that make sense?

I only need YouTube in Desktop Mode on Firefox. The rest of my sites are fine in Mobile mode.

thank you in advance for your time!!

i open firefox and it opens the tabs from when i closed it. that is good.

when i open task manager, it says there are 13 or more tabs open but it only shows 3-5 tabs open??

it uses up so much of my memory and who is it that has access?

again, thank you!

Since doing a Refresh of my Firefox installation - I have noticed several changes in behavior.

target="_blank" has changed its behavior - it now causes the browser to jump to the new tab (regardless of ANY settings that may stop it changing) - the middle click business "SUCKS".

When downloading multiple links from an index file - it was just a matter "tab" - "enter" to work down the list. The new behavior causes too much tab jumping about on the screen - very wasteful of time and energy.

When I actually click a link on a page - the same things happen - too many clicks required to get the job done.

I generally download files in batches of 300 files.

Any other options are too time consuming !!!

Latest Stable Firefox, windows, over 4000 tabs. Overall Firefox works great for me. but when I restart it to install the latest versions etc, it only restores one active/loaded tab per window. Rest are restored, but in a closed/unloaded state. I usually have 5-20 open tabs per window, and hundreds more unloaded, it's how I work. How on earth can I get it to restore all the open/loaded tabs as they were, not in the unloaded state they default to?

Issue still occurs in a new install with no addons, default settings, under 30 tabs etc. Ditto Win 10 or 11.

Also, how on earth can I get official Mozzilla pages to use Dark Mode??

As I am trying to make my browsing faster by minimizing the use of the mouse, I have come across an issue: if I search among all tabs on Firefox for Mac, either by "shift + command + A" or by adding a percent sign to the address / search bar, selecting a tab that is within a collapsed tab group deleted the tab group in question in this keyboard-based manner of execution. This issue leads to the unnecessary need to recreate the tab group. I have verified the issue at least with a collapsed tab group containing a single tab.

I've run into an issue on macOS where Firefox does not restore my previous session if I close the browser using the red "X" window button. I have the "Open previous windows and tabs" checked in settings.

• Scenario A: If I click the red "X" button to close the Firefox window and then reopen Firefox, my previous tabs are gone (except for pinned tabs) and a new session is started.

• Scenario B: If I use Cmd + Q (or Firefox > Quit) to close the application, my session restores perfectly upon the next launch.

It seems that closing the window updates the session state to an empty window, wiping out the saved session even though the application process is still running in the macOS dock.

Is there a way to configure Firefox on macOS so that closing the last window via the red "X" preserves the session tabs just like Quitting does?

Somehow I changed something and I don't remember what I did. When I click on a link or bookmark another tab is opened, which is what I want, but my browser doesn't go to that page automatically. How do I get the browser to go to the link I clicked on? I'm using Windows 10 with Firefox 159.0

Thanks, Rafal

After an update (seemingly, I did not run 'sudo pacman -Syu'), the tabs have changed in look and to be frank i find the new layout ugly. How do I turn it back? Attached is a photo of the new tab groups, i couldn't get one of the circular tabs.

I updated to Firefox 159.0 and now when I click on a link it doesn't open the link in a new tab. I tried the extensions and they did not work. I also tried changing some of the setting in "about:config" and restarting Firefox after making the changes and the links still open in the same tab.

Thank you, Rafal

In the past, for my open tabs I was able to move them around, and place a certain tab in a different position, and Firefox would simply Move the tab over , making room for the tab you want to relocate.

Now, When I grab a tab, it does NOT do that. What has changed??

I’ve seen in other browser where you can make the tabs disappear or close after a week or so. I couldn’t find it in your settings. I like it because I often forget about my tabs and I end up with 100 open tabs. Could you please add this? Thanks. —Caleb

Right-clicking on an open web page displays a menu of options which includes an option to add the tab to a group, and the sub-menu shows two options, one of which is Closed Groups (the other is add new group). So where are these groups ? And why were the groups closed?
