    I recently updated my Firefox, and now I've lost the ability to switch tabs using the left and right arrow keys. How can I fix this problem? (Googled it already and found no help)

    I didn't know you could do that. I know you can switch tabs with CTRL + #ofTab.

    Like CTRL + 1 for the first tab, 2 for second.

    Unless you mean something different. :p​

    I know about using the CTRL keys, but I'm trying to get it back to using the arrow keys, since they were a lot easier to use >.>

    Oh, sorry for being no help. xD

    I'm not all technical with browsers and stuff. Maybe they disabled the feature in Firefox, or you just have to enable it.​

    I figured out that it doesn't work the same way now due to a bug in the new Firefox's tab focus, but you can still use it if you click in your url bar (or search bar if you have one), hitting the TAB key, and using the left and right arrow keys.

    Alright, so I'm assuming your problem is solved, so...
