When I start firefox tabs don't load icons that were helpful to me for finding the tab I was looking for. Now i gotta load tab to get icon to show.

So yeah. Whenever I used to load up Firefox my 200+ tabs would appear unloaded. In each tab was a mini icon indicating basically what website that tab was. For example if I was looking for one of my youtube tabs I would look for the mini youtube logo in the tab that indicated to me that yes this is a youtube tab. Now these icons don't show up until I click and load the tab up. I don't like unnecessarily loading up tabs I don't need searching for something, it might slow down the program when I have a million tabs loaded instead of just a few.

You need to allow Firefox to load the tabs before you select them. To do so, please do the following:

  1. Open the Firefox options
  2. Select the Tabs tab
  3. Uncheck Don't load tabs until selected
  4. Click Ok

This should fix the issue, but if it doesn't please don't hesitate to reply to this thread.


Warning: Allowing multiple tabs to load at once may cause unwanted performance issues. Do so with caution.
