Am running FF84.0 on a 64-bit Windows 10 machine. After installing this FF version, I see only the "X" to close the tab, with no "--" to minimize. How do I minimize, rather than close, a tab?

The minimize / restore-maximize / close buttons are part of the window controls and usually would appear upper right.

If you call up the window control menu using Alt+Spacebar, is minimize available or is it grayed out?

If nothing happens when you press Alt+Spacebar, could you check whether Firefox is in full-screen view? This can be launched and exited using the F11 function key. (This is different than the full-screen that pages can call, which you exit using the Esc key.)

Make sure you run Firefox in desktop mode and not in tablet mode.
