How to disable Undo closed tab notification

New version of firefox for android (33.0) has a new feature: it notifies you every time you close a tab and suggests to undo. This new feature quickly became as much annoying as it was frustrating previously to accidentally close a tab. So I was searching in about:config to find possible setting to turn it off, but didn't find anything. Suggestions?

There is not a preference to alter the behavior of 'undo close tab'.

As I thought. Hopefully it comes in the next release, or shall I firm a bug on bugzilla?

I found the Undo Closed Tab toast notification annoying too. After checking around the web, I found a year-old article over at ghacks.net that provided me with the solution . . .

  • Open about: config
  • Find: browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo
  • Change the default value from 5 to 0 (that's a zero)
  • Restart Firefox

Hope this helps.
