In Firefox 56, how do I keep the browser window open after closing the tabs? I looked at Mozilla support but did not find the answer.

You can set the browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab pref to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window and make a close button appear if only one tab is open. You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.

Thanks, Actionparsnip. I did this a few years ago on my previous computer. I just got this one a few weeks ago.
