I can't spend half a day setting them all up again only to have them, disappear again. Please find my tabs and restore them so I can continue my work.

Sometimes, I'll click a new tab, and "something" happens. It's like it tries to create a new tab, yet it's just a half-formed nothing that you can't interact with. And when this happens, Firefox is destined to eventually crash / become unresponsive. I literally have to reboot to get Firefox working again. I haven't tried logging out. That would probably work, too.

This also happens when moving new tabs, but I've only notice that happen on tabs with Youtube.com open.

When I glance away then tap to wake up phone the browser pops a new tab which is frustrating-to the point I am ready to use something else on my phone if I can't downgrade the browser version. I need to know how to downgrade because my browser is now not a joy to use. Note, I did not change my browser settings-it was the last simple update that broke it.

This has happened twice now - I've had a main window open with 100+ tabs and a second window open with only one tab. All settings are as described to save history, etc. After closing Firefox and later restarting, only the window with a single tab is restored. I've saved the session backup files in another location and manual copied and renamed them into the main profile folder but in each attempt, only the single tab window was restored, which is obviously not what I want. I know the 100+ tabs are in the file because of the filesize and because I've used https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html to scrounge the URLs from the backup file. But the point is that Firefox is NOT extracting the data from this file and restoring the other window, which makes me suspect there is a bug or problem with session restore when more than one window is open at the time of shutdown.

Thanks for any suggestions. Bob

I have tried to keen a two year old version of Firefox for Android going but finally had to update. I have always used and supported Firefox since the start but I am now loosing my patience with the new development.

All I want is to open a new tab and it will take me straight to my homepage. Something that used to be a basic feature of using a search engine. Now days I have to tap about three times to select my homepage in Google.

I have seen this question asked before on this and no defined answer. I have tried everything.

Why do I have to have a custom Firefox page in every new tab, I don't care about all the noise from sites, preferences - I don't want to know some morose politicians wears pink frilly nickers every time I open a tab... All I want is to simply, easily start my search on Google again every time I open a new tab.

Not much to ask is it?

P.S Yes I have cleared all preferences on Firefox homepage tab. Set Google as my homepage & not using any customised jump back ins. My opening is also set to homepage- doesn't work

I do not want to switch browsers because i like using my FF account and sync feature but this annoyance is really getting to my head. Help is hugely appreciated!!!

I went to settings and set firefox to open links in a NEW TAB instead of a new window, but it still opens links in a new window. I did a search on google and when I click on the link for the website to see the information it is still opening in a new window. How can I fix this so I don't have a lot of new windows. It's irritating to have to close all those stinking windows just to get back to my original window. I just want the links I click on to open in a new tab.

The normal and obvious solutions would be SYNC, but that outright breaks due to the amount (doesn't return a thing), while SHARE has a bizarre limit of 99 with a cooldown - would take days at that rate.

I am trying to set it up so I can have more than one tab at a time or dont have to go to the corner to find a list of tabs or go to a diffrent window to open one. I have the box in the corner with the numbers but that sometimes vanishes entirely so I only have the one tab and would like it to be like most browsers where you can see them all at the top. I cant get the extension that manages it because the only computer I have is one given to me by my job that's a chrome book and doesn't support those extentions, I tried. About:config doesnt work it just tells me that's not a site or gives me advice on how to use it which isn't really helpful when I can't even search it or find the spot for it. The tabs section in the settings only offers to put it on top or bottom of screen or to have it inactive or not, or automatically close them, there is no option to have more than one tab. Please help I've tried everything I can think of and everything I could find online.

Hello community, first of all i must say that i find it disappointing and upsetting that we're left between each other if help is needed, that there isn't actually an official resolution centre, to make a report, file a case and be answered by a Mozilla expert directly whenever and try to resolve it 1 on 1,first reason to dump Firefox.

2nd reason, we're in year 2022, yes, we've come a long long way in technology and software development and there's still NO option to make a BACKUP, a clone of your current Firefox profile or have an option for automatic backup from time to time or at least before you do an update etc.

I was updating my Firefox and didn't have enough space so after it downloads the update just won't install it. No worries, easy, freed space and let's try again, success....Or not, as I've LOST all my opened tabs, just gone. Yes sync is on, logged in, activated but what's really point of it??? I think most of us saw it as something in a way of an online backup of our tabs, bookmarks, logins, history, add-ons etc. somewhere in some cloud if something goes wrong to be able and restore stuff not just sync between devices which is also confusing and not syncing asking from/to what to sync between devices.

Why is it so difficult to add a backup option online or on devices storage? I'd literally give anything to be able and get my tabs back but it's impossible as the

Is there a way to always show the tab close button on the tabs? Or perhaps to show the button on hover of the tab? Chrome does this and I find that very helpful, in cases where I want to close a tab and do not want to re-open that page.

Some context: When you have many tabs open (I know, who does that?) and you want to close some of them, but do not want to select those tabs, currently you can right-click and scroll through the menu to the `Close Tab` option. This is slow and a bit clunky. The `Close Tab` menu option is buried in the bottom-middle of the list.

This issue is somewhat complicated by the fact that I use the excellent Auto-Tab Discard extension to discard/sleep tabs. (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/auto-tab-discard/) So when a tab is discarded, and you click on it, the tab reloads. Which is silly when you just want to close it.

Anyone aware of a way to always show the close-tab button, or show on hover?

Thanks!
