How do I make it so that Firefox does NOT close my other windows when I open a Private Browsing window?

more options

Whenever I open a Private Browsing window, it closes all of my non-private windows until I end the private session. Is there a setting or add-on that will make it so I can have both private and non-private windows open? Both Internet Explorer and Chrome allow you to do this and it is the only reason I'm not using Firefox.

That unfortunately is the way that Firefox works.

You could create a new Firefox profile, but it would have it's own set of bookmarks, you could use a different browser for either half, but again it would not share you bookmarks. Firefox has the best bookmarks, but I understand your situation.

Private browsing does not suit my usage because it turns off everything privacy related and I would not want to turn off bookmarking or lose my session data. I am the only user on my computer.
