The Tab Groups (Panorama) feature has been removed from Firefox. We know this may be inconvenient and we apologize. Removing the Tab Groups feature makes it easier for us to improve Firefox. Thankfully, the Mozilla community has come through with some great replacements for Tab Groups. This article covers your options.

Where are my Tab Groups?

All your Tab Groups have been bookmarked and stored in the Bookmarks folder. You can access them by clicking the Bookmarks button in the toolbar.

Firefox has also made a one-time backup of your Tab Groups data that is stored in your profile folder. Add-ons may be able to use this data to recreate your Tab Groups.

Tab Groups replacement add-ons The Tab Groups extension If you want a direct replacement for the Tab Groups feature, try the Tab Groups extension. It was created directly from the Firefox code and works just like the current feature. It will be as if the feature was not removed from Firefox. This extension aims to fully replace Tab Groups in Firefox, providing a similar and hopefully even enhanced experience. You can install Tab Groups from addons.mozilla.org.

Once installed, you can import your old Tab Groups from the backup file that was saved when you updated to Firefox 45: Open the Tab Groups view using the toolbar button or the keyboard shortcut CTRL + Shift + E . Click the gear icon in the upper-right area of the Tab Groups view to open the options page. Choose Backup / Restore from the sidebar of the options page. Click the Load Migration Backup button. Finally, click Import selected items into this window and your old Tab Groups will be imported. You can now continue using Tab Groups as if the feature hadn't been removed from Firefox. Other extensions There are several extensions created by third-party developers that can help you manage tab groups. You can find our editorial picks in this collection of extensions, or browse for more options on addons.mozilla.org. Important: If you have questions or experience a problem with an extension, please contact the extension developer directly.
