Ok, So when I open a lot of tabs which causes some of my tabs to the left is not shown on the tabs. I have to click the left arrow to view it. But when I did that today, the tabs show for half a second after I clicked the left arrow and immediately snaps back to the right most tabs. Is there anyway to fix this issue?

Can you use the keyboard to go to other tabs (i.e. only clicking the scroll buttons doesn't work)?

Try to open a new window to to see if that works better.

You can use Ctrl+1 to Ctr+8 to go to the first 8 tabs and Ctrl+9 to go to the last tab.

Do the Ctrl+ Page Down and Ctrl+Page up keyboard shortcuts work?


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

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

I have tried doing Safe mode checking but nothing has changed
