When I create tab groups, I cannot close them. The red X close tab group button does not work. I can resize, add or remove sites, even remove all sites. But I cannot get the close tab group button to function.

Thanks for the advice. I traced the problem to theme Noia 4 v 1.6.7. I don't know how to advise developer or where else to post this information. But in any case, I will remove it.

Hi,

Please check if this happens in Safe Mode.

Problematic Extensions

Troubleshooting Extensions and Themes

Uninstalling Add-ons

Uninstalling Toolbars

Safe mode disables the installed Extensions, and themes (Appearance) in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Use hardware acceleration when available. Options > Advanced. All these settings/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme or hardware acceleration is causing issues.
