Q :Mozilla Firefox 115.8.0esr is have dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows ChatGPT
A } As of Firefox version 115.8.0esr, the preference dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows does not exist. This preference allows JavaScript code running in webpages to close the window or tab it's running in. However, Firefox doesn't have this preference in its configuration.
If you're looking to control whether JavaScript code can close windows or tabs, you might need to explore alternative methods or configurations available in the specific version of Firefox you're using. Always refer to the official documentation or release notes for accurate information about preferences and configurations in your Firefox version.

Try to add this pref directly in about:config (don't edit files). This pref exists and I'd say it should fix your issue. ChatGPT is lying as usual.
