Tab Manager Plus for Firefox by Markus

by LS, 4 years agoAfter installing, I wanted the sidebar to go away, so I pressed the red "X" button. All of my 415 tabs closed. I see now the top "X" for closing the sidebar. Too late for me, and I've lost productivity trying to get those tabs back. ____ Wish the pop-up forced you to read the deletion notice by having another button to confirm. Many people will click the red "X" button automatically without seeing the message. The red button shouldn't assume that you will hover over it to get the notice. I'm sure this has happened to many others. Heads up.

posted 3 years agoI'm so sorry about your loss. So you pressed the "Close this window" button ( when you hover over with the mouse, it also says "Close this window" - and the text in the top of the extension also changes to "Close this window" )
But you assumed it would close the sidebar, is that right? And you had one window open with 415 tabs?
Argh.
Were you able to recover the tabs by going to the firefox history, and reopen them?
To be honest, adding an additional step when closing a window would also reduce the simplicity of the extension. One of the nice features about it is that you can quickly close many windows while cleaning up your workspace.
