Firefox closes all windows

Since the last update for Firefox, whenever I click a link on a page that opens in a new window, if I try to 'X' by this second window, it also closes the page I had just. If I manually open another window for some reason, it seems to work fine. It's only when I get a new window from one link to the other. The TWO Windows always closed. No tabs, but the windows. It is very annoying if I was done with the first page, sure I was. I even tried to minimize the second window open, then right-click in my taskbar to close, but it will always close the original window that I was in when I clicked on the link also. This has happened on MANY sites, I have visited from links.

  • How to close all windows after running the SaveAsPDF script?

    I ran into the problem where I adjusted the SaveAsPDF script to backup my PDF files with a preset specific PDF I use. But after executing the script, all newly created PDF files are open in illustrator and I have to close it manually one by one, choose if I want to 'Save' or 'do not save' (even if they are already registered). I would like for them to close right after that the PDF is created.

    I've added in the script:

    if (myFile.open("w")) {
      myFile.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
      }
    

    Who's going to run the script and close the files, but for only 3 of the 10, I opened. The 7 remaining won't be saved or converted to PDF. Is there something wrong in my script or anything else that I can try to solve this problem?

    Here is my complete script:

    /** Saves every document open in Illustrator
      as a PDF file in a user specified folder.
    */
    
    
    // Main Code [Execution of script begins here]

      sourceDoc = app.documents[i]; // returns the document object
    
      // Get the file to save the document as pdf into
      targetFile = this.getTargetFile(sourceDoc.name, '.pdf', destFolder);

  • How to close multiple windows of firefox (not mulitple tabs)

    I often have several internet messaging Windows Open (often each window has several tabs). I would like to be able to leave all the windows with just a single closure of firefox. Currently, I can close each window with multiple tabs with a single large. I would like to extend this to several windows (each with several tabs).
    I just right click on its icon in the Solution Explorer, and one of the options is to "close all windows", and that's all. I would like to see this option available in firefox. Thank you

  • In 4.0.1 if I have firefox several windows open, when I try to close a window, he closed everything. Why I can't close just a window at once?

    I open multiple Firefox Windows so that I can quickly Alt-Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to the tabs. When I close one of my windows of Firefox, the browser closes all windows of my. What will happen to the 'Farm' function under the file tab? Why have I not able to close only one window at a time?

    How you try to close the window?

    For some reason any (?) close the command window appears only in the file menu if you call using Alt + f. The hotkey Ctrl + w still working to close the active window. And the Red "X" on the window title bar should always work to close this window.

  • Impossible to compile CHM - Message says to close all the Windows HTML help

    TCS 1.3 running with the latest patches.

    Single source project - out using HTML (.chm).

    When I try to compile, I get the following message is displayed:

    "Cannot create compiled file. It can be opened in another window. Please close all Windows HTML Help and try again. »

    I don't have any HTML Help windows open. Closing of HR and restart do not solve the problem. I have to shut down the computer, which is a serious concern, before I can compile again. I do not work in a network directory, which may be the cause, but I would like to know if there is a process that I can kill for Windows Task Manager that would allow me to compile without having to restart my computer. I don't see any process that identifies itself as something that I can kill for this problem.

    Anyone?

    Hello

    This message normally you launched the. CHM file you are trying to create. The first step in the process is to destroy the existing. CHM in preparation for the construction of a new. Just as you must destroy a House on a lot where you want to create a new.

    If your. CHM is on a network drive, another user may be subject to open. (yet another good reason to work locally)

    If your. CHM is on your local drive, RoboHelp believes that you have opened. If you press Alt + Tab, you see a blue arrow pointing upwards. Which indicates the CHM file running.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Close several windows in the taskbar?

    I understand that you can get an overview of open windows on the taskbar and close a window from the taskbar. But, you can close several windows? For example, let's say I have 6 open IE browser windows. I hover over the IE icon on the taskbar and see the 5 windows in preview mode. Can I select and close 3 of them at the same time, or I have to do it one by one?

    Hi Jeff,

    Yes, if you right-click on the icon in the taskbar, for example Internet Explorer, you will see an option "close all windows".  I think it'll do what you're asking here...

    In addition, you can hide, or rather, but in the background by clicking on the "Show Desktop" box on the far right of your taskbar.

    Please let me know if this helps or you need anything anyone else.

    Best regards!

  • Is it possible to close all open easily programs?

    original title: IS THERE A SHORT CUT 2 CLOSE all OPEN FILES? __

    MY COMPUTOR SAYS THAT I NEED TO CLOSE ALL OPEN FILES AS IM OUT OF MEMORY...

    IS THERE A SHORTCUT TO DO THIS OR CAN SOMEONE HELP ME AS IM NEW TO A PAOLO THANX.

    I'm not aware of a shortcut 'universal' to close all open files, but check out a few ideas below:

    • If the files that you want to close are part of the same program (Word, or folders, files etc), they will be grouped in the taskbar. You can right click on the taskbar icon, and then selectclose all Windows.
    • I found that the CTRL + W is very convenient to close open tabs or even some windows such as Windows Explorer Windows, as well as the traditional ALT + F4 shortcut. In some applications (for example, Visual Studio), then CTRL + F4 closed a file opened without leaving the application.  When I have a lot of things to close, I use these soldiers to accomplish the task more quickly.
    • If minimize all work instead to close all windows, you can try the Windows key + "D".
  • In the previous version of Firefox, I could close the window and still have my tabs intact when I reopened it. Why 4 FF closes all tabs and does not give me an option to save? (And if so, where can I change the parameter?)

    In the previous version of Firefox, before closing a window with tabs open, he asked if I would "save and close", "close all tabs" or "Cancel". FF4 comes to warn me that I am fill these tabs and wonder is I want to continue, without giving the option to save my search for later use.
