How can I reopen tabs from other window that I have closed?

Situation is following: I have two windows and I close one accidentally. How can I reopen tabs from other window that I have closed? On Chrome, if you use CTRL+Shift+T, it opens last closed tab (regardless of the window).

In Firefox, it seems that I can't do that. I can only open the closed tab from the current window.

Another situation.

I have two windows - lets say A and B. I close the tab on window A (window is still open) and switch back to window B. If I use CTRL+Shift+T from the window B, it won't open my last closed tab, which was from the window A. Is there a way to always open my last tab, regardless of the window? Or that is already possible, but I'm doing something wrong? This is actually how Chrome works and that is the only reason I'm still attached to Chrome, as this helps me so much.

Also, is it possible to expand the maximum number of closed tabs that can be reopened? Current limit is 10 tabs.

Thanks, BR Filip

Hello fpandjic,

There is no possibility to open a last closed tab in another window in Firefox at this time.

As for increasing the maximum amount of tabs you can, to do this you go to about:config. In the search bar on the top paste this: browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo and increase the number from 10 to a higher amount.
