Why does V45 keep Running after I close with the X and I have to use the Task Manager to Shut it down completely
Why does Firefox V45 keep Running after I close it with the "X" and I have to use the Task Manager to Shut it down completely.
Also Some of the time when I restart Firefox , Firefox will open to a New window [Not all my old Tabs ] and sometimes it will Open with "Restore"
I shut it down daily to do a Backup using MozBackup , I would just use the "X" to Close and Firefox would stop running .
I had No problems like this with earlier Versions
Running Win 10
Any Ideas or Help ?
Thanks . . . Rick

Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox title bar.
- "3-bar" menu button > Exit (Power button)
- Windows: File > Exit
- Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox
- Linux: File > Quit
If you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" then try to disable this feature.
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
cor-el = Thanks for your quick and helpful reply.
Yes *"3-bar" menu button > Exit (Power button)
- Windows: File > Exit > are another way to close Firefox {besides Task Manager} , but should I or anyone have to use those extra steps , when since version 1 or 2 (senior moment) I have just been been closing Firefox completely via the "X"
FYI = I did use them and they do completely Shut Down Firefox
If you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" then try to disable this feature.= Do Not use'''''''''''
So my question remains mostly unanswered Why does Firefox V45 keep Running after I close it with the "X"
Thanks . . . Rick

The X on Title bar only closes that one window and not Firefox unless it was the last window open.

James Thanks for that information
"The X on Title bar only closes that one window and not Firefox unless it was the last window open. "
I normally only have 1 window open , but 2 or more Tabs open .
So yes Closing that Window and the Tabs within Should close Firefox , but with Version 45 [at least for me ] it Does Not unless I use 1 of the above methods to close Firefox.
So my question remains Still mostly unanswered Why does Firefox V45 keep Running after I close it with the "X"
Thanks Rick
