📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses the difficulty of reordering and renaming Firefox's taskbar sub-windows and whether third-party tools can accomplish this. The original poster emphasizes that existing programs like Groupy and 7+ Taskbar Tweaker fail to retain window order upon restart, and they seek alternative solutions. Ultimately, a user recommends using a Firefox extension called Window Titler, though the original poster expresses reservations about addons, and the overall tone indicates frustration with current options.

Lets say I have Firefox on the task bar, which has many sub-windows. How do I reorder and rename them?

I tried:
- stardock groupy: doesn't work and is incredibly bugged
- 7+ taskbar tweaker (set to launch at bootup, firefox doesn't run at background): same doesn't work!

Found nothing else to achieve this...

Any ideas? I have too much windows to orient between them, it is annoying AF!

Thanks!

What? No it is not. You can change order of sub-windows on the taskbar. These programs above can reorder sub-windows on the taskbar, problem is: state of the windows is not remembered!!!

I was referring to the Window Title. Order, sure, but as you pointed out Windows does not retain that order and there's no functionality in Windows to do so.

This is crappy addon (in general addons are crap) but it is good as hell, maybe this will help someone: Window Titler – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US) Don't forget to disable sable auto updates!
