Reopening Firefox with the same tabs

Over the past few updates, I’ve noticed an issue with Firefox where it no longer restores my previous session when reopening the browser.

I normally keep four tabs pinned and about five additional tabs open for browsing and work. In the past, I could simply click the X to close Firefox, and when I reopened it, all my tabs that are pinned and unpinned would automatically come back. Recently, this stopped happening. Now, if I close Firefox, it opens with a fresh window instead of restoring my previous tabs.

I’ve already checked the setting under General/Startup, and Open previous windows and tabs is enabled. Because of this issue, I avoid closing Firefox entirely, since rebuilding all my tabs each time has become a hassle.

Is there a way to fix this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks :)

Remove "Add Tab to New Group" item from Tab Context Menu

Hi All,

I would like to remove the first item from the Tab Context Menu, which is "Add Tab to New Group", and simply have "Reload Tab" as the first menu item.

I was using this code, which worked in FF 145, until the latest update (FF 147)...

#context_openANewTab,
#context_moveTabToNewGroup,
#context_moveTabToGroup,
#context_ungroupTab + menuseparator {
   display: none !important;
}

However, now there is an extra separator line at the top of the menu (see attached images).

This code also removes the top menu item, but still leaves the separator line on top:

#tabContextMenu #context_moveTabToNewGroup {
  display: none !important;
}


Is there a way to remove the first menu item without adding the separator line?

Thanks!

These are technically two separate issues, but both pertain to functionality of the mouse and keyboard. Whenever I right click to bring up the menu, the options (despite being functional) do not appear in the menu proper. Instead there are just empty buttons. In addition, certain hotkeys aren't working at all. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to copy paste are doing fine, but Ctrl-T and Ctrl-W to open and close tabs respectively do nothing. Neither of these issues were happening yesterday.

Hi!  :)

Recently on bootup MS EDGE loads instead of my beloved Firefox. I did not install EDGE as I really dislike it! I know how to close it and again make Firefox my default browser, but can't I make EDGE stop loading in the first place? I have to reset Firefox as my default browser every day! Dell Desktop computer, Win 10 Pro (No, it doesn't qualify), 16 gigs of ram, 500 meg SSD Please tell me what else you need to know. This is kind of a little thing but it's driving me nuts! LOL

Hi, I unchecked something in my settings and I don't know what I did to cause when I right click to copy something there is no copy and a lot of the rest of the options are no longer there as well. Can you tell me what to do to repair this? It doesn't give me the option to take a screen shot either or I would show you what's left in that popup box. It only give me "Ask an AI chatbot" and the "translate".

Have a nice day, Tom
