User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0 Build ID: 20150826023504 Steps to reproduce: I tried to close a tab. Actual results: The tab at the top was deleted, but the page I was on still remained, and I couldn't select from the tabs up top, so I was stuck on that page. I figured I'd close the whole window and reopen it by using the History function, but when I place the cursor over the 'open previous window' option, I get a small box appearing to the right of the black arrow and that's it. No menu/list appears at all on the right side. Restarting won't do anything to help. Expected results: The tab should have closed and moved to the next page, or the close window should pop up on the previously closed windows list.
Please check if the problem exists in Safe Mode: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode If it does not happen in Safe Mode, try to use the mode to disable some extensions to find out if any of them is the reason.
