Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[wb0gaz]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/118.0

Steps to reproduce:

Version 118.0.1. When N tabs are pinned and 0 or 1 non-pinned tabs are open, exiting from Windows version of Firefox (X on far upper right corner) fails to warn before exit, even though setting "confirm before closing multiple tabs" is selected. Instead, firefox exits immediately.

Actual results:

Version 118.0.1. When N tabs are pinned and 0 or 1 non-pinned tabs are open, exiting from Windows version of Firefox (X on far upper right corner) fails to warn before exit, even though setting "confirm before closing multiple tabs" is selected. Instead, firefox exits immediately.

Expected results:

Warning dialog before exit, ask for confirmation.

Hi, wb0gaz

If possible, please verify in about:preferences, under Tabs section, if the following feature is enabled: "Confirm before closing multiple tabs". If the option is enabled and upon closing the Firefox window the prompt still does not appear, please let me know.

Hello Ada C. - per the original report (and re-confirmed):

(( even though setting "confirm before closing multiple tabs" is selected ))

I have captured screen shot from firefox settings including this setting, but I do not know how to attach screen shot (.png file) to this reply.

I can perform other tests to assist you, and can attach screen shots if you can tell me how.

Thank you for looking into this issue

I now realized how to attach screen shot, so this shows setting you asked about.
