Hello,

Is there a way to restore backspace button function in the newest version of Firefox, so when pressing it the previous page opened? This function was very helpful for me!

Chosen solution

You can set browser.backspace_action = 0 on the about:config page to enable the history backspace action.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can click the button to "Accept the Risk and Continue".

See "Changed" in the release notes.
