I received an error on my Motorola Droid today when I attempted to open a link on Twitter. If you’re opening the web browser from different applications, it always opens multiple windows. Eventually, it will open so many windows that it will throw an error:
Window limit reached
Could not open a new window because you have already opened the maximum number.
It actually took me a few minutes to figure out how to close some of the windows. Here’s how.
1. While in the Browser, press Menu.
2. Tap Windows.
3. Tap the X next to the windows you wish to close.

The double tap on the dash/minus sign worked EXCEPT for windows requesting login info. . . . Such as FB and my credit union. Those will not clear isinglass any of the methods mentioned here. This is a bug and it handicaps the machine. Fix it!
I have a DROID x 2 and there isn’t a menu button, the x 2 doesn’t have a keyboard. Besides the touchscreen keyboard.
I upgraded to the new OS and my windows list lost the x’s and now I have the dashes. It seems that holding on the dash no longerturns red so it is difficult when to know when to let go, but this DID work to delete them.
I have the same problem. No X just minus sign. I discovered if I do a very quick double tap on the minus sign, the window closes.
I have a Motorola Atrix and have the same problem. When you bring up the window list there are not X’s only dashes (or minus signs). When you tap the dash it brings you to that window. This continues until I hit max windows and then I have to power off to close the windows.
I am still having problems closing windows. When I get to the windows list there is only a minus symbol and nothing to close it. Holding it down turns it red then opens it when I release. Can anyone help?
I cannot find menu that u refer to on browser
