Oracle Cloud is optimized to work with Mozilla Firefox® ESR browser but contains it's own navigation buttons. This means using the browser navigation, such as Back, Forward, Refresh, etc., to move through Oracle close the application.
For example, clicking Firefox's Back button closes the current process in Oracle, and displays the Oracle Welcome page—not the previous page in Oracle.
Always use Oracle's navigation buttons instead of the browser's navigation buttons.
