Sometimes I deleted my opened tab. But I need that tab, so I want to know that is there any way to get back my tab? if not. I think there should be a way to get their tab back what you deleted accidentally.

Thanks.

Hi!

You can use CTRL + SHIFT + T to restore the tab you just closed. You can also go to History to restore all your recently closed tabs.


I hope that solved your problem!

If it did, would you please choose this answer as your solution? It would help other Firefox users to find help on the forums faster and more efficiently. Thanks!

And of course, feel free to post back if you need more help!

Happy browsing!

Key board shortcut Ctrl+Shift+T opens the last tab you closed.

It is also a menu option from the old menu-bar

  • Menu Bar [Alt+S] -> History -> Recently Close -> (Lists)

But not the same from the new button

  • NewButton ->History -> Restore Closed Tabs ( all)

See also History > Recently Closed Tabs

  • Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.

You can also find History in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list.
