Closed Firefox tabs without giving me a warning, even if I have checked "notify me when I close the tabs.

So far, Firefox always pop - up would be the "danger; you are about to close x number of tabs"window when I tried closing Firefox with several tabs open. Today, however, it just closes directly on my desktop, regardless of the number of tabs are open. "Warn me when I close the tabs" checked in my menu "Tab of Options", but this still does not work. I always get warned if trying to open too many tabs at once, but he refuses to tell me when I close my tabs.

I tried checking and unchecking options, restart the computer, checked my plugins for exceeded those (the only potential problem is Shockwave Flash 17, but the other options to aide said Shockwave Flash 16 was the problem), sought user.js and went almost all the suggestions on the forums. Nothing's worked, and at this point I'm stumped.

(Also, I'd rather have Firefox clear my history when I go out, so just having my restored tabs when I restart Firefox is not my preferred option).

This problem started this afternoon; It was fine earlier in the day. This is due to an update of windows, an update of Firefox, or some strange virus?

THE SECOND UPDATE: I managed to locate the problem. Tab Mix Plus add-on is apparently not compatible with the latest Firefox update. Turn it off seems to have solved the problem for now.

  • my firefox closes when I close the window, but the process is not stopped since I got the update to firefox

    Since I upgraded to firefox 2 days ago, there a reboot problem. When I close the firefox window, it closes as it normally does, but whenever I try to restart firefox it shows the notification that firefox still works and I first need to stop the previous process before you can start a new one. Finally after I manually stop the firefox process it restarts again.

    What fixed it for me, but I am running v.15 because of other problems. I have to say I tried a hundred things and nothing works. I made the note never stop, even hours later, if I forgot to go to the Task Manager to end the process. It seems not important to know if I had extensions or modules running or not. I tried this before today. My graphics driver updated a couple of months. In any case, THANK YOU for this, finally something is going right.

  • When I close the Firefox window, I get the warning that I am closing multiple tabs. The tabs back on reboot.

    When I have more now open tab and I use the x in the window close the browser I get the warning that I close x number of tabs. If I click on continue it closes the window. It's still all I had to do to end the session and close all. Now when I restart Firefox all tabs that were closed at the previous session appear on the new page. If what is expected, why do I get the warning. This just started happening. Version is 32.

    Did you remove the user.js file because this file is the main cause of the problem?

    With the extensions.autoDisableScopes pref, you can control where extensions can be installed.
    It is one of the predefined files that define the default values for preferences (you can check these files through the address bar).

    • Resource:///defaults/Preferences/Firefox.js
    // Disable add-ons that are not installed by the user in all scopes by default.
// See the SCOPE constants in AddonManager.jsm for values to use here.
pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 15);

  • Firefox is not saving my session when I close the browser

    I keep my browser set to remember my tabs open when I close Firefox. Since the last update, but I couldn't get there. I checked my preferences and the option to keep the tabs in Firefox closing is always selected. When I go to for closing of Firefox, however, I get the 'you are about to close X tabs' message and all the tabs are forgotten. When I open Firefox again the tabs I had open are all gone. I tried to re-selecting the option 'save my tabs' several times, but he did not a difference in Performance Explorer, even if the settings are still correct when I check again. I'm not sure what to do about this, but it's quite maddening and I would really like to find a solution, best before frustration leads me to find another browser to use.

    Use "Firefox > output" (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing by clicking on the X close in the title bar of Firefox.

    In the case you use 'clear history of Firefox closing. "

  • When I close the tab it does not return the last active tab

    My English is not very good, so I'm sorry about that. I want to return last active tab when I close a tab.
    Example; I use 2. tab, then I spend 4. tab, then close it. Firefox goes to 5. tab, not 2. I did a google search, but I can't find anything useful.

    OK, I tried the ' tab mix more ', it has the option "return selected the last tab" when closing tab, it works, but he also broke something. When I open a link in a new tab by currently tab, it opens right into the stack tab. I checked if "browser.tabs.selectOwnerOnClose" is changed to about: config, but it is not changed, its value is true (the default). The addon made it's ineffective, I think.
    So I'll try to find another addon. (open to suggestions)

  • When I close the tab to review Journal I download WSOP ad on my desk. He had to get rid of it.

    When I read the news online of the journal and then close the tab and go to my office, I have a poster advertising WSOP. I would like to avoid this.

    There are sites that open an ad in a window behind the current window, which I think is commonly called a pop-under ad, but which is essentially a pop up window.

    Firefox allows websites to open windows pop up in response to certain actions, such as the click and double click. The browser does not check the content of the window.

    To block the more aggressive, you might consider using an extension of the type Adblock Plus and its add-on battling pop up. (I do not use those myself, and you may have to make exceptions for some sites so that they work properly).
