Every time I open the Firefox app the browser opens a new window instead of opening on the window I left off on like it used to. Now I’m wasting time looking for the window I was on. Is there a way to stop this from happening so when I open the app again I can pick up where I left off? If this is a new feature it sucks and we should have the option to turn it off. Please let me know if there is a way to turn this off and how to do it. Thanks for your time and help.

Thank you, that changed it back so now it works like it used to. Now I can pick up where I left off.
