Hello,

From a month or so, my mozilla Browser tabs are showing as browser windows. For better understanding please check the attached image.

As you can see in the image, when I hover over the Mozilla icon on the taskbar the browser is showing as there are 4 windows are open but they are just tabs.

The same mozila is sycn in 2 of my computers which is showing the issue. I have another computer with different email and the browser is working fine there. Is there any setting that I missed here?

Looking forward for a positive response.

Thank you.

This is controlled by the Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar option in the Firefox settings. Uncheck that option to return it back to normal.

Hope this helps.
