Hello,  A setting in Firefox's configuration editor allows you to prevent the last tab from closing when you close the last tab.  Clear everything in the address bar and copy/paste:  about:config  Then hit Enter  Click on → I accept the risk     In the search box, copy/paste:  browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab     The default value is set to → true     You need to change the value to → false A simple double-click is enough Or right-click on the line → toggle     A+  -- pistouri

Hello, and what happens if you click at the top left of the home page!?  Best regards   --  "He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes. He who does not ask is a fool for a lifetime."

Hello. What I'm looking for is to be able to close the first tab but not Firefox, it's so I can do another search. Before Quantum, it was possible. Of course, I have no problem closing Firefox.

Hello, Click on the "+" at the top right to open a new tab then right-click on the previous tab and choose "close tab" Firefox stays open on the home page .. and you can minimize it to an icon in the taskbar.  But to do new searches, you don't have to close the previous ones. You can easily open around fifteen tabs without any problem, and even open multiple Firefox sessions with several tabs open, and minimize the pages to icons in the taskbar .. I do it regularly ... Hovering over the Firefox icon in the taskbar gives you a preview of the open pages and you can choose which one to reopen ..  In case of issues, you can set the number of simultaneous connections for Firefox (and a ton of other things) by opening the config page (type "about:config" in the address bar). I forgot the name of the corresponding parameter to modify, but you can search at the top of the config page, or Mr. Google should also be able to help you ..  See you soon Nyctaclope
