Hello there,

If I have a tab opened and go to my bookmarks to open more tabs (Open all in tabs) they are placed to the right of the current tab. I want the first one to replace my current tab, as it used to be...

I found something called: "browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent" in about:config and set it to false... But that didn't help.

-> click Firefox button and click Options -> Tabs panel -> place Checkmark on When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately -> click OK

Check and tell if its working.

As far as i know, that won't happen. You can open only 1 link (Bookmark) on top of an already opened tab.

What you can do is when you select the option Open All in Tabs and the Bookmarks start to load, press CTRL + SHIFT + TAB keys to navigate back to the previously selected tab (which you want to close) and press CTRL + W keys to close it.

Check and tell if its working.
