The tab previews feature on Firefox causes clutter and occupies space on the Windows Taskbar. Moreover, users are prone to accidentally closing tabs, resulting in data loss and the need to use various methods to restore recently closed tabs on Firefox, Chrome, etc., or set up tab closing alerts.
To disable multiple window display while browsing the web on Firefox, especially on the Windows Taskbar, follow the instructions below to disable tab previews on Firefox:
Turn off multiple window display, disable Tab Previews while browsing the web on Firefox
Step 1: To disable multiple window display, click the three horizontal lines icon on the Firefox interface > select Options.
Alternatively, you can press Alt to display the menu bar on Firefox, then choose Tools > Options.
Step 2: In the Firefox settings interface, go to the General section, then navigate to the Tab subsection.
Step 3: Uncheck the option 'Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar' to complete turning off the display of multiple windows.
After unchecking this option, Firefox will stop displaying multiple windows while browsing, avoiding the clutter and discomfort for users. Instead, disabling tab previews will consolidate tabs into a single Firefox window.
Now, whenever you hover over the application icon on the taskbar, you will only see the preview window of the active tab. Any changes take effect immediately after disabling tab previews in Firefox, without needing to close or restart the Firefox browser.
The feature to display previews of multiple tabs on Firefox is one of the features that helps users easily select the tab they need while having multiple tabs open. Previously, this feature was also available on Internet Explorer and Chrome.
As discussed in a recent article shared by Mytour, accidentally closing tabs is a common issue, especially when browsers like Firefox, Chrome, or Coc Coc display multiple tabs right under the Taskbar. To tackle this problem, readers should try the trick of setting up multiple tab closure alerts on Firefox.
Firefox is one of the best web browsers today, packed with many essential features such as offline browsing, default private browsing, or easy translation of web pages into Vietnamese. Depending on their needs, many people also use Firefox shortcuts to enhance their web browsing experience, making surfing the web on Firefox faster.
