I'm having an issue re-opening a closed tab in FF4. When I close a tab, I cannot reopen it via Ctrl+Shift+T nor via History > Recently Closed Tabs. The Recently Closed Tabs is also disabled within the History menu.

Make sure that you not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

  • https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
  • You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
  • To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

Unfortunately, that didn't do the trick. :( Checked the settings, and it was set to "Remember History". I also checked the custom settings, and it was not set to "Permanent Private Browsing mode". Any other ideas?
