How to Let Firefox Close All Tabs on Exiting

By default, when multiple tabs are open and you attempt to exit the browser, Mozilla Firefox asks you if you want it to save your tabs and windows for the next time it starts. This allows you a chance to reconsider if you inadvertently forgot about important tabs that are still open in the background. The prompt gives you the option to disable that message in the future by simply checking the box in the prompt window telling Firefox not to ask next time. However, you can also delve into the Firefox Options or Preferences menu to change this setting and allow Firefox to automatically close all tabs when it exits.

Instructions

1. Open Mozilla Firefox and press the "Alt" key on your keyboard if the top menu bar is not visible.

2. Click "Tools" from the top menu bar and select "Options." Alternatively, if you have an earlier version of Firefox, click "Firefox" and select "Preferences."

3. Click the "Tabs" tab.

4. Uncheck "Warn me when closing multiple tabs."

5. Click "OK." Firefox will no longer prompt you when closing a window that contains multiple tabs.
