Why Firefox always opens with the last session tabs?

When I open firefox always opens with the last session tabs? How can I solve this problem?

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

Windows hides certain default file extensions.
Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can see only file name without the file extension.
You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.

    You can save your bookmarks as follows.

    Launch Firefox, click bookmarks, click on "Show all bookmarks", click Import & backup in the toolbar and then click on Export HTML - choose a name for the file, select a destination and save this file.

    After you have completely uninstalled firefox and then reinstalled, click bookmarks, click on "Show all bookmarks", click Import & backup in the toolbar and then click Import HTML, navigate to the location of the file and click open to restore your bookmarks.

    When I downloaded Firefox for my new computer with Windows 10, I opened Firefox and follow the instructions to put everything in place to operate, including checking my email address. When I finished this process, I had 3 tabs open. Then, I closed Firefox.

    The next time I opened Firefox, 3 tabs opened. The additional 2 were on the same places they were until I closed Firefox.

  • _blank always open in the same new tab

    Hello

    I'm curios if there is a solution to this problem. If you have an announcement, we will say, that for any click that it is configured to use '_blank', each subsequent click will change only open tab page. There are not several tabs created. Created a new tab, and then the address is changed in the same tab.

    I also tried to use ExternalInterface.call("saveglobalscore",score) ("window.open") and even this one always opens in the same tab new. If I do windows.open since javascript it opens new tabs continuously.

    If anyone knows a way around this, let me know!

    Thank you

    Hi years.1, Flash is used by many sites to play videos and audio. It is also used by some sites for menu or the overall presentation systems. Some sites also use Flash to downloaders of files.

    Firefox in general will let you know if a site needs a plugin to display all of the content, but you may also see a message on the site. These messages are not always specific to Flash, but can sometimes say that JavaScript is disabled or else referring to the problem.

    You should not delete files in the Firefox application.

    You will need to download and reinstall Firefox if you cannot restore this file to the trash.

  • Lost all my tabs open with the last update

    I've updated Firefox with your last update of security and since then Firefox would freeze with a script error when I tried to go to one of my tabs. I followed the troubleshooting instructions and he created a "Old Data" folder in my office, but the new page of Firefox did not my tabs. How can I get back them? Can I cancel the update and return to the previous state of Firefox before the update?

    (edited to replace labels with tabs - c)

    Thank you all for trying to help. Here's what needs to be done to solve the problem when Firefox is installed on a mac. When you tried to reset your profile, note that there is a folder created in your desktop called 'Old Foxfire Data' or similar to this one. It contains all the data that has been cleaned up in the new profile. Delete the Firefox application and download a new application of Foxfire. Then launch Firefox. When open go in the tab 'Help', above. It's the last of them. Once you click on help, then click on "troubleshooting information. The first section is called "Basic application". In this section, click on the tab "show in Finder". It will display your profile folder. It starts with a letter and then a bunch of numbers and letters. But it will contain '.default' and some other figures. Now go to the first folder in your office called old data Foxfire and open it. Note that it will also have a similar profile folder. Open it and go to this folder copy all 80 more files. Now go to the new profile folder, open it and paste all files in this folder from backup profile to the profile folder. Click Yes to replace all the files that you paste into the new profile folder. That's all. Close, close and restart Firefox. You will have all your history, bookmarks and any label that you had open before the crash. Also, I say stop mac and restarted the computer, so that all possible conflicts would be eliminated. PS: The deletion of your profile folder and paste the old folder in its place it will not work! You need to replace all of the files in the new folder with the files from your profile in the old data folder.
