CLEAR TABS

When I open foobar, it is loaded with all my old tabs, even dupes.

I couldn't find how to clear them; so I upgraded to 1.1.13 but they still appear.

How do I clear them?

I did read the FAQ's which stated where to post this, but I coudn't find the how to /general section.

Thanks for your help!

Right click on them and select Remove.

I have about 100 tabs displaying, completely covering the tracks listing area.

1. Can I globally remove all of them, instead of one by one?
2. Can I remove the feature to add tabs so this doesn't happen again?

NEW:
When I updated Foobar, I now have a new section  displaying that is headed ALL MUSIC. Can I change the path that it is receiving this view from?
When I open and click on a track in this ALL MUSIC section, the prior playlist that is still the default still plays instead of the new track. Is it that you are not able to play tracks in the ALL MUSIC list? If so, what is it used for?

Lastly, where do I find the choice to receive emails when my posts are replied to?

Thank you for your help!

In the Default UI you can use the Playlist Manager UI element. It allows you to select multiple playlists and remove them together. You can even use the Ctrl+A keyboard shortcut to select all playlists.

You cannot restrict foobar2000 from creating more than open playlist in general. It depends how you create them. If you use a search component that creates a playlist for the results you can check if it has the option to reuse an existing playlist.

It sounds like what you are describing will remove the playlist. Does remove mean delete?

I only want to remove the playlist tabs from my lower right section which is covering up the tracks that are playing. I do not want to remove the actual playlists as I still want to choose them.

Thanks for your help.

Yes (and/or no). But if you save the playlists as files (or they already exist as files), then you can reload them when desired (playlist files you created will not be deleted). If you hold <Shift> and click on the File menu, there is an option to "Save all playlists..."

Or if you'd like a more convenient way to have that many playlists available, you should probably use a playlist selection method other than the Playlist Tabs element.
