Each time there is a new installation/update, Firefox gets rid of my windows/tabs that I am using. I want to keep them. Why does Firefox automatically get rid of them and how can I prevent this. I don't want to have to go back and look for them

Thank you

Hi, suggest a few things, I think the issue is the use of the Browser Privacy Extension that your running : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browser-privacy/ it should be noted what permissions this Extension is offering for what it takes from you :

  • Access your data for all websites
  • Exchange messages with programs other than Firefox

&Access browser tabs

  • Access browser activity during navigation

Note that the adblockers Ghostery and uBlock Origin will perform more for less intrusion. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ghostery/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

As this Extension has access to your tabs/navigation am thinking this is causing the issue. Should Disable it. Then please do this as you are a version behind :

We shall quickly find out as your running version 61.0.1 and 61.0.2 is available.

Your Web Security Extension does not have much of a reputation and has not been updated for 6mos. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/web-security/

Recommend Norton and/or Malwarebytes Extensions : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/norton-safe-web/ https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/malwarebytes/
