Some times I close windows that I wish reopen later. Please add to the contextual menu of a tab the option "Reopen closed window". Just below the option "Reopen closed tab".

Until then, here are some other methods:

(A) Keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+N (on Mac, Command+Shift+N) to reopen the last closed window

(B) History menu > Recently Closed Windows

The History menu is available either from the main menu button at the right end of the main toolbar, or the top menu bar (optional on Windows -- tap the Alt key or F10 key to reveal).

I'd like to second this request, I'm not sure why it was removed from the context menu.

I'd like to second this request. In addition I'd also like to request not removing things from menus that have been there for years

FYI the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+N does exactly this

I agree that this should be a displayed option (like it is when right clicking on an open window in Chrome).

If I close my inbox window (in Mac Osx 10.14 /  TBird v.115.16.0esr) I HAVE TO quit the app and then re start it. And this is the latest version of TBird I can run under OSx 10.14.6

There is NO listed option in the File or View or Tools or Window pull down menus to re-open the Inbox window. And none of the listed keyboard shortcuts work either.  This has been an ongoing issue for years now and I kept expecting this VERY BASIC ISSUE to be addressed and 'fixed'. 

Why is this still an issue? 

Why isn't there an Open Closed Windows option (or equivalent)?
