Hi synthakai, the "List All Tabs" button appears when there are too many tabs to fit on the Tabs bar. You can, if you like, remove it using the Customize feature -- click and drag it down to the box with the other unused buttons. See: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.

For Ctrl+Tab, I think the overlay you see is normal. Yours didn't show that before with the same setting?

hi, jscher2000. Thanks for your answer.

Yes, I have a lot of tabs usually, and you might be right that the "List All Tabs" button appears because of it. But the thing is, a version ago I was able to keep it hidden. It popped up with the last update. I tried moving it around, but I can't seem to be able to get it off the screen and into the unused buttons section. I can only move it to the left or to the right of the tab bar.

As far as I can remember, it didn't appear some versions ago, but I'm unsure. Maybe it's ok for some users. But I dislike it. It's annoying, it eats resources and lags on my older netbook, it doesn't let me switch to further than 6th tab with CTRL+Tab combination. I would seriously like the old behaviour back. Any ideas?

Try to go to Options -> General -> and uncheck the Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order option.

hi, TyDraniu. Interesting idea. Well, I tried unchecking the "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" and guess what? - Now I can't switch the tabs in MRU order :))) (which I wanted to do, as I wrote in the first message) however, I have to mention, that: + The window with tab previews doesn't appear anymore; - I still can't remove the "List all tabs" dropdown.

I dislike the tab switcher preview (like windows ALT+TAB), but I like switching in recently used order. At least Firefox Developer Edition still uses the old behaviour for both (switching tabs instead of a preview overlay).

There is a setting in Options/Preferences to set this behavior. When you disable this feature then you can cycle normally though all the tabs. With the feature enabled you can only cycle through a few recently used tabs.

guys&gals, please, stay focused as I wrote in the first post, I am aware of this option. I want to scroll through ALL tabs AND in the MRU order, the way it used to be before FF went chrome-crazy

This is support: we work with the Firefox we have today and can advise on documented and undocumented behaviors, settings, and workarounds such as add-ons.
