Keyboard Shortcut in FF Doesn't Work.. help

Post by killz »

Theres a bug in FF after latest update. The 'undo closed tab' keyboard shortcut doesn't work like it used to. When I press Ctrl + Shift + T, it doesn't bring up the last closed tab. Instead another previously closed tab comes up. How do I fix this?

Have you tried starting Firefox in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
If no improvement using Safe Mode, do you have the same problem if you create a new profile and test it with no extensions or non-default themes installed?

Hi Dan. I went into safe mode and the problem goes away. What are the next steps now?

When things work properly in Safe Mode but not in Standard Mode it often indicates that an installed extension is causing problems. Try disabling all extensions but one and then close and restart the program. (Disable them by using menu path Tools->Addons->Extensions->click on "Disable" for every extension but one.) See if the problem is present. If not, enable an additional extension and close and restart the application. Repeat this procedure until the problem reappears. The last enabled extension will be the cause of the problem.
