Hi, I run Linux Mint 19 and have Firefox as my main browser. When I open FF it always opens in my left screen and I always want it in my right screen so I move it to the right screen and all is well. If I then close FF and then later in the same session open it again, it will always open in the left screen. I have noticed that other applications do seem to remember which screen they were last opened in so:

1. Is there a setting somewhere to turn this capability on? 2. If not could you please add this capability to Firefox on Linux Mint?

Thanks for a great browser.

First off, your Firefox build was generated by Ubuntu, not by Mozilla.

If you want to change that the ability to changed that would be in the operating system and not the web browser. Check with Mint support for the Ubuntu support forum for help.
