All,

Noticed a major problem in Fire Fox, that must be corrected! I usually have 2-20 FF sessions open and 5-20 tabs also open in each FF session. FF used to let you see up to about 15 tabs, displaying them and responsively compressing the width of the tabs,to let you see what is open, but now it only displays 3 tabs, requiring you to actually scroll right or left to find the tabs open.

Totally unacceptable! This maybe OK for NEWBIES, but we pros and Developers need to see everything without scrolling to find it.

Otherwise I totally need a different Browser!

I understand that as from 14th March 2025 I will need to update Firefox. I am currently running 102.0 and have sucessfully prevented Firefox from updating to later versions. I did this to prevent the updates positioning the tabs in the wrong place. Please can you tell me if the CSS script that I use to put them back into their correct position, i.e. below the Bookmarks Toolbar, will still work.

Also, will newer versions allow the user to choose where the tabs are positioned? It was possible to do this in earlier versions and the choice is also available in other browsers.

I have also managed to stop Windows 10 updating for several years too, Microsoft kept altering my laptop in unacceptable ways.

I would like to reiterate everything said below. This needs to be a standard feature. This seems like a no-brainer and should be a standard function on any browser. It only shows that Mozilla is getting left behind, even Edge has this feature, what makes it worse...IE had this feature and that is considered ancient tech now. from: kenmendell Now that I've got you and we're on the subject, Firefox seriously, MOST seriously, needs to bring back the "Bookmark All Tabs" command and have a "Save All Tabs" command of its own. There are no third-party apps and Add-Ons that do this very well anymore or at all, the older ones that used to do this no longer work well or at all. Firefox needs them in the browser to stay. It's never been the same without the "Bookmark All Tabs" command and trying to "Save All Tabs" the same way you would save a single page with "Save Page As" is frustratingly impossible to do. Any older Add-On or program that did this no longer works well or at all and hasn't for almost a decade or longer. It needs to be a standard function of any advanced browser. Firefox needs these functions as the normal standard. So, bring this up with your design team as an imperative because my having to migrate to these other lesser capable browsers the way others have doesn't appeal to me when Firefox should be a decade beyond their design and development, especially for functions that shouldn't be difficult hurdles for any modern browser to have.

Why does firefox insist on opening hot links in the same window?

No matter what I change in the Settings all of the hot links keep opening in the same window.

Good Day,

I am leaving Brave as my default browser for Firefox.... Brave is good, just would prefer Firefox. I used to love it.

The problem is...I have a theme on Brave and Chrome that I love dearly. Is there a way to bring that theme to Firefox? I tried using Firefox Color, but it looked awful.

PS: I am the tech Village Idiot so please talk to me in that vein ;)

Thank you and Warmest Regards, Alisa (Stormwolfe)

Hi. I use firefox version 133.03 (64 bit) and have issues when on x.com's website. It will randomly open new tabs constantly. I have tried multiple options with settings on firefox and my pc, blocked new windows from opening, and disabled pop-ups. Checked my extensions and tried disabling all and that did not affect anything. I have run scans for viruses, malware, etc., and nothing comes up.

Any advice? It gets pretty annoying having to close the repeating tabs to be able to view the site.

Due mostly to upgrades in the app software, it's necessary to restart Firefox on occasion. Also, it's necessary due to OS upgrades. While the Restore Previous Session is a wonderful feature, it arbitrarily (and properly, by default) forgets all of the Private Tabs. But, there are times when I'd like to save some or all of the Private Tabs I've got open. A 'settable' feature to 'Remember Private Tabs during Restart' would be a tremendous asset at times.

Hi, Recently had to reset my Pc and on installing firefox I find that I am unable to keep open the tabs I use daily, I keep getting the -close 7 tabs - I do not want to close my tabs on closure. Firefox always used to close - No asking to close tabs - and when I reopen all my tabs were still tghere. Whats Changed?

I have several windows that won't open upon starting Firefox. I had 7 windows with multiple tabs open when last closed. They usually all open again (per my settings) when I open, but this time only 2 opened. I ultimately moved all tabs to new windows, but one window that has only one tab with "OneTab" (from the OneTab extension) in it won't open. And I can't move that tab anywhere. That "Onetab" has multiple important tab. Any idea for solutions?

I'm having to use a back up computer. I opened FireFox and I have no tab bar and no way to open tabs. I have this incredibly annoying sidebar that I was at least able to move to the right. But I can't make it horizontal or clear it. I need the sidebar gone and my tab bar back.

If I right click the sidebar, I do not get an option to get rid of it.

I have checked settings repeatedly. I have even attempted to add a button at the upper right to open tabs. It goes to the sidebar with no labels and no way to clear. It's maddening.

I have many more tabs open in the background then I actually have. I am not good at this but I can give what I know I am experiencing. 1st photo has16 tabs open in pc's task manager 2nd photo shows that I only had 2 tabs open in Firefox browser 3rd picture show 19 in task manager. I expanded in task manager the Firefox app and right clicked to end task to remove what might be ghosts tabs running in task manager. ----That did not work There are currently 6 of them that has the efficiency mode on the 19 tabs.

Firefox is getting complicating for my abilities but I appreciate using Firefox for all the flexibility. I usually ask a friend to set me up or help but he is unavailable and this seems to be above his head to. Crossing my fingers for a easy solution. Thank you, Happycamper
