Steps to reproduce:

This problem only occurs sometimes on some tabs.

  1. Go into Responsive Design Mode (Ctrl+Shift+M).
  2. Try to reload the page (F5).
  3. Try to force reload the page (Ctrl+F5).
  4. Type "window.location.reload()" into Console.
  5. Exit Responsive Design Mode.
  6. Try to reload.
  7. Enter

Actual results:

Nothing happens from Step 2, 3, and 4.

This bug has existed for many versions of FF, but I can't recall exactly which version it first appeared.

Expected results:

The page should reload even when in Responsive Design Mode.

Sorry, there are some typos. How do I edit the description?

Thank you for reporting this. RDM has a couple of issues related to history navigation and reloading that we've been actively working for in-development versions of Firefox (particularly Nightly 80 and Developer Edition 79). That said I'm unable to reproduce the issue you're experiencing on Firefox 78.

Would you be able to confirm if you're having this issue on the latest Firefox (78 version)? If so, and if you're able, check if the issue still happens on either Firefox Nightly 80 or Firefox Developer Edition 79?

Yes, it's still happening on Firefox 78.

I've been trying Nightly 80.0a1 (2020-07-02) and so far it looks good.
