I just got a computer with Windows 10 and the latest firefox. When I right click and open something in a tab, nothing happens, I dont see any tabs open to the side but whhen I try to close firefox it warns me that I have multiple tabs open. Where are my open tabs?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js file in the profile folder that stores session data. When sessionstore.js is deleted you lose pinned tabs and open tabs and you will have to recreate them, so if necessary make a note or bookmark them.

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
