by rasul, 3 years agoToday's update (1.1.2) is broken, it closes tab on single right click, even right click menu doesn't show up. I have firefox 102.01. Reverted to version 1.1.1, and it works correctly.

- Rated 4 out of 5by RH, 4 months agoThis add-on works perfectly - using its current left-click-right-click. On every website I've used it on, it's worked properly. That said: I had to disable this extension. There are too many times where I'll close a tab that I didn't want closed. Notably, I'll double-left-click text (to select it), then immediately right-click on that text (to get the context menu for options), and the tab will close. That's such a common click pattern with webpage text, I can't keep this otherwise excellent extension.

Again, it does NOT work on every website. It closes a tab just by clicking right click only. Very annoying !!!
Previously I had given 5 stars, THEN it was not working anymore with the double-right-click action so it went down to one star and now it's working again cause the developer made a clever change with this Close tab by left-click-immediately-followed-by-right-click. - Rated 1 out of 5by fantom23, 2 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16599519, 3 years agoBroken as of FF102. Will still work if you move between clicks however. Rights to Close EX does the same thing and works without moving the mouse but removes the context menu unless you hold ctrl.

posted 3 years agoThank you for the feedback :-)
The issue has now been fixed (with a slightly updated gesture). Please find more details at https://github.com/webextensions/close-tab-by-double-right-click/issues/12
Kindly note that it might take a few days/weeks before the updated extension gets approved by Mozilla and becomes available on the Mozilla add-ons store. Developer response

Think of it as the equivalent of a Ctrl+W with your other hand. Invaluable!

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15428448, 3 years agoIts closing the page with a single right click on v 102. Even when I just right click on a link. The right/left thing doesnt work. Hope youre able to find a fix as its a great app and I miss it! I had to disable this app for now.
- Rated 4 out of 5by MisfortuneCookie, 3 years agoDoes what it says on the tin. Unfortunately, the right click menu is opened after the tab is closed. C'est la vie.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Sunsh, 4 years agoAfter closing the current window, a right-click menu screen will be displayed in the next window
- Rated 2 out of 5by Thomas, 4 years agoWould be cool, if the context menu would not open at all in the case of double right click!
Why does it open?
The tab closes though, which is good! - Rated 4 out of 5by miguelk, 4 years agoWorks great! Thank you! However, very sad it still hasn't been fixed so the context menu doesn't stay open on double right click. The Chrome version works just fine. Why is this so...?

- Rated 4 out of 5by Johann, 5 years agoContext-Menü is still open after Tab is closed. "Middle click on a page closes Tab" do not have this trouble, so it does not come from FF. But anyway its GREAT, thank You

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14526812, 6 years agoafter tab closes the right click menu remains open on the next tab. Can this be changed so that the menu is auto closed?
- Rated 3 out of 5by Darvin Atkeson, 6 years agoIt works incredibly well but causes some issues with various sites such as Facebook. Most notable symptom is dialog boxes where comments would go do not show up. I have tried it with and without the Stylus plugin. Turning Double Right Click plugin off and reloading the Facebook page seems to resolve the problem but I really, really want this feature.
If I can provide any assistance on troubleshooting it let me know. It's an excellent add on! - Rated 3 out of 5by John Corliss, 7 years agoIt works, but it leaves the context menu open. Also, it doesn't close Mozilla websites. "Double Click on Page Closes Tab" has the same problem with Mozilla pages.
