Thanks Cc!

If you use the tab groups feature it has been removed.

It's also funny how removing useful features is called removing bloat but 4/5ths of the newly added features are nothing but bloat.

Thanks again chief for the heads up. I've never used the tabs group so I won't miss it.

i use firefox and my copy of firefox44 just updated to firefox45 and i don't use tab groups.

i have decided to start using Firefox ESR 38 instead of Firefox 45 just for the reason that firefox keeps updating too much and i use mobile internet so need to save bandwidth. will i get into trouble with mozilla because i want to use firefox esr instead for firefox 45?

just been doing some reading about firefox esr and i don't need the latest version of firefox with all the bugs because i just want stability with firefox esr. you can have a look here to see some of my crashing problems with firefox which even almost made me look at othere browsers but no i stayed with firefox but with firefox esr.

45 has been ok so far except when i try to go to a mozilla.org page, then it crashes. I'll have to play around with my add-ons to see if one of those are causing a problem.

Weird, I just went to Mozilla's home page and it loaded just fine. You must have another issue perplexing your system.

I agree, mine loads that page fine too(on FF45 64bit here).

On the subject of Firefox, is there a way to remove or disable shortcut keys since a PC at work has a wonky left control key and while typing in the browser it ends up executing control-e sometimes which opens a new page with Firefox search, drives me insanely mad- I put a paper clip under the left control key for temporary.

I"d delete the Mozilla folders under AppData\Roam and Local, sometimes updates can wreck some old data.
