When I minimize the browser it closes rather than minimize to taskbar. I have to go to menu & re-open FireFox, losing my previously opened tabs.

I understand when you minimize Firefox it closes Firefox. What are you clicking to minimize the browser?

I have one work around, if you click on the Firefox icon in the bottom tool bar, the window will minimize. You can also click on the button to the left of the x.

I am happy to help more, we just need to know the method of minimizing :)

I click on the - symbol. Also there's not a FF icon on the task bar when I have FF open (just noticed that).
