![]() Which is why I’ve added an ‘Exit Firefox’ button (userChromeJS crafted) next to Firefox’s Buttonbox which closes *all* Firefox opened Windows (‘EX’, as well as ‘RS’ to Restart (also a userChromeJS), and Clock (extension manipulated with CSS) on the left as viewable here. What does bother me is that if I have several Firefox windows opened, closing Firefox only closes the current Firefox window, good and normal except that other windows include those such as Library (which is still not displayed in a tab), Page Info etc … and that I more than once had only one Firefox GUI opened but as well Library, Page Info, and that closing the Firefox GUI didn’t close the latter, which meant Firefow was still opened. Regarding CTRL+SHIFT+Q, I read many complaints about this but given I’m a mouse aficionado rather than a keyboard fan, it doesn’t bother me. The risk of accidental closure is higher in this context since the quit shortcut (?+Q) is adjacent to the switch-application shortcut (?+Tab). The only instance in which a close modal is on by default is for two-key quit shortcuts on macOS and Linux. The close actions in these particular contexts were likely intentional and so the messages provided unnecessary and perhaps unwelcome friction.įirefox 94 and newer displays a close confirmation prompt only on Mac and Linux devices, if the two key shortcut is used, because the risk of accidental closure is higher, according to Mozilla. Starting in Firefox version 94, Firefox no longer warns you by default when you exit the browser or close a window using a menu, button, or three-key command. According to the organization, close actions in the contexts mentioned are "likely intentional", and that the prompt is "unnecessary" and may provide "unwelcome friction". ![]() ![]() Mozilla reveals why it decided to change the closing prompt from Firefox on a support page. ![]()
