Hello. Are there Keyboard shortcuts for options, especially one for opening the tab context menu ?

The page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-context-menu could be ameliorated by indicating the potential equivalents. eg : CTL+t is equivalent to "New Tab" option (should this be exact). Regards. Cap

Hello, FF support forum,

I think I have seen a Container retain my login to a site when I open it again after closing it. Is there a way to configure Containers so that they are mini versions of the dump-cookies-temp-data when I close Firefox entirely? I would so love that functionality.

Regards, G.W.

Hi!

Previously, all the sites saved in a single container could be accessed via the dropdown arrow to the left of the 'close,' 'minimize,' and 'maximize' buttons. Now, it only shows current tabs, tabs from other devices, close duplicate tabs, and add a tab to one of the containers. But how to open those containers is unclear.

PS I have the latest update 139.0.1

There's a feature that pins tabs if they're dragged to the left of the tab bar, shown in the image attached. Is there any way to disable this functionality? I can't seem to find any documentation on it whatsoever.

Tabs are not restoring after session closed. I have tried the profile suggestion. I verified my settings say open tabs from last session. Rebooted. Cleared cache then opened tabs then closed and it keeps only opening one tab. It crashed last night with tabs on it and this was the results once I brought it back up.

hallo zusammen wo finde ich in firefox eine funktion, die mir die zuletzt angesehen und geöffneten tabs wieder herstellt?😐

in den einstellungen ist "Vorherige Fenster und tabs öffnen" angehakt.

es kommt aber wiederholt nach updates dazu, dass die letzten fenster und tabs nicht wieder geöffnet werden, sondern nur 1 tab mit der festgelegten startseite.🤷‍♂

muss ich mich damit abfinden, dass die letzten tabs hin und wieder im nirwana verschwinden? oder gibt es auch dafür einen tipp für laien?🙏

Hi,

I started using the 'Vertical tabs' option to manage my tabs. I prefer it over the horizontal bar. However, I noticed that when going fullscreen (F11) the vertical tabs are not removed. This is different from horizontal tabs, which are removed from the UI when you press F11.

I think that's because vertical tabs are tied to the sidebar altogether. Is there an alternative to have the vertical tabs work the same as horizontal tabs?

Horizontal bar behaviour in fullscreen:

- The horizontal bar disappears when going fullscreen (F11) - The horizontal bar reappears when hovering the mouse over the top of the screen (which is great!)

Vertical bar behaviour in fullscreen:

- The vertical bar does not disappear and gets in the way of the fullscreen (F11) experience - Checking the setting "Expand sidebar on hover" does not replicate the behaviour of the horizontal bar reappearing upon hovering the mouse. Instead, the smaller version of the sidebar remains and it expands to it's full size when the mouse hovers over it - The only option is to remove the sidebar altogether, which means going back to horizontal tabs

every time i go to open a link it puts me in a new tab, even trying to use the original way of changing the preferences in the browser itself doesn't work, it either opens a new window or new tab. i dont like new tabs or new windows created while searching or opening links, please help :/

I'm on the latest FF 140.0.1 on Linux and I adore tab groups, I'm using it more and more to organize my browser windows. I am using the default (horizontal) tab group layout. Because I have a lot of tabs in the window, I collapse each existing tab group and sort tabs between tab groups.

I can move a tab into an expanded tab group with drag and drop. But I tried dragging and dropping a tab onto a collapsed tab group, even holding it over the collapsed tab group to see if that would work. Nothing seems to register, is it possible?

I would like to move a tab by drag and drop without expanding the collapsed tab group and move the window focus to the next tab. This would save time when I am organizing tabs!

The alternative is to Add a tab to a collapsed tab group, which also expands it and consumes horizontal real estate, forcing me to scroll (further) to return where I was organizing tabs. So I collapse the newly expanded tab group, scroll back to the next tab I want to organize into a different tab group, and repeat but this causes a lot of scrolling navigation to my workflow. It makes complete sense and I really like using menu navigation to add tabs to a specific group because it is discreet and I wish I could move tabs with the same method.

I searched Settings > Tabs and then about:config for browser.tabs.groups.* (and then every preference with tab in it) and couldn't find anything that made sense to me.

Thank you for any help!

I just updated to Firefox 142.0.1, and the list all tabs button has returned. I tried the old fix by going into about:config and setting the browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled = false as I was originally shown, but it doesn't seem to work. I don't know why, as it seemed to be fine the last few versions. I did recently sync my browser with another one on a windows 11 machine (which I suspect I'll be returning soon, as I prefer windows 10 to windows 11), but I can't imagine that being the reason, I don't think. Can anyone help figure out how to turn this thing back off?

I used to leave many tabs opened in my browser so that when I got back I could easily find the one I wanted to use.

Now I can't because the Mozilla browser just won't save them. So each time that I open the browser they are all gone...

... Is there somersetting I can DO????

When I click on a link, it opens in a new tab. I do not want the link to open in a new tab but to open in the current tab, how can I change to this please? Thanks, Andrew.
