Problem with Tab Groups?

Post by Oceanwaves »

Hello,

I'm using Firefox ESR 38.4.0 on Gentoo Linux and NoScript 2.7.

Some days ago (around 12/06/2015) I noticed that I can't open my Tab Groups anymore. I finally decided to rename my .mozilla folder and restore a backup from December 4th. It worked, but only for a short time.

Every morning my Tab Groups were broken and I had to restore the .mozilla folder. So today I decided to create a new profile using the "Refresh Firefox" function. The disadvantage was that I lost all my add-ons. So I reinstalled the most used add-ons (like ABP, FireGestures, TabMixPlus and NoScript). When I checked my Tab Groups they didn't work again :cry:.

So I did another refresh, only installed Adblock Plus, restarted Firefox several times and checked Tab Groups after every start. All was fine.
Then I installed NoScript, restarted Firefox, checked Tab Groups: they worked. Restarted Firefox again, checked Tab Groups: no reaction :cry:.

So I did one more refresh, installed all my add-ons except NoScript and my Tab Groups are still working.

Is there any chance that NoScript somehow interferes with Tab Groups? I'm using NoScript and Tab Groups for a long time now and never had such problems. I use Ctrl-Shift-E or the Tab Groups icon to open my Tab Groups.

Anything related in Error Console (Ctrl+Shift+J).

(BTW, Tab Groups are going away, in case you didn't know.)

I didn't install NoScript for 2 days, but installed it again on Friday. Now it's Sunday and everything is still working fine. Strange, but looks like my problem is gone.

And yes, I know that they are planning to kill Tab Groups which is very sad. I hope there is/will be an extension to replace them. But this will only help on my private system, at work I'm not able to install any add-ons so I will have always 20-30 tabs... :cry:
