How to close firefox tab without clicking it first When having a lot of tabs
This question has been asked before (3yrs ago) by EzzTarek but I have some info to add to it as it was not solved. (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/999966) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/EzzTarek
If anyone else has any more info to give please do.
Ctrl + W does work but it closes only the current active tab. Ctrl + Tab goes through each tab individually Middle Mouse button closes the tab your mouse cursor is on (found personally by me im sure many others have found it) AND use can use your scroll wheel if you have say 100 tabs.
Middle mouse button does take a second so i am going to personally use the Ctrl + W to close many all at one (probably 10 tabs a second just a guess) Mozilla user "moses" said this Hi, The way I use is to use shortcuts. You can find a list of keyboard shortcuts in the link below: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly#w_windows-tabs
To close a tab, I use Ctrl + W
To scroll through tabs, it's Ctrl + Tab
I'm not aware of any other methods but I'm sure someone with a little more knowledge than me can find that out.

AFAIK to close the tab you want you either choose "x" or use Cntl+W as you said. And for mouse control buttons controls that is done by the mouse driver software the Browser uses what the mouse driver sets. having 100 tabs is asking for trouble why not have different Browers open so there is not so many tabs to control. Also having so many tabs was Tax your RAM I know I done that to point to it will crash taking everything. And this is was happening in FF56 but so far I haven't had it with FF57+ x64 version but that doesn't mean it will happen just that having more RAM (16gigs currently) will mean even bigger crashes should it happen.

Note that there is a context menu item on the tab bar to close all tabs to the right.
