    Software? See if you can get it removed with some anti-malware tools. Spybot, AVG, Kapersky, et cetera...
    If you know the name of the program, you could search the registry for any instance of that name and --be CAREFUL--delete them.
    And I have to ask: Did you go back to Firefox after uninstalling this program and reset the "when I open a new tab..." setting? What about your home page?

  • A new tab is opening when I click anything on a page. Options that should open within the same window are opening in a new tab. How do I fix this?

    I am currently using 16.0.2. I just did the update a day or two ago. Suddenly today, when I click anything on the page, it opens in a new tab. Just moving through the wizard options to get to this point in submitting this issue opened 7 tabs. How do I fix this? I only want new pages to open in new tabs. If I select 'Next Page' or perform a google search, I don't want a new tab to open. This is getting ridiculous. It's the third time this has happened.....always happens after an update from you guys.....and I can never find the fix in your support pages, and have to submit a question.

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • I want a new tab to open as my home page not multiple pages

    I want any new tab to open with my home page google and not multiple pages which are of no interest to me. It seems if you switch the option off you only get a blank page. If you use the add on feature it does not now work. this 'upgrade' is a nuisance.

    '''Home page in New Tab'''<br />
    There have been several ways suggested to do that, but the easiest for many users has been this add-on --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab

    If you are referring to the search in the Add-ons Manager (''Firefox button > Add-ons'' or ''Tools > Add-ons'') that problem seems to have been corrected late yesterday afternoon. If you are referring to something else, you will need to give more details about what you are trying to do, the steps your are taking, what are the results of your action(s), and what you expect as a results.

  • I cannot get a new tab to open when clicking the plus sign beside an open tab or clicking the "open new tab" button via right clicking my mouse.

    I can no longer get a new tab to open by clicking the new tab button. New tabs do open only when I click on a link in the current tab or by right clicking the home button and opening that specific page.

    This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
    Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbX-SD/3.12.2.16749

  • I cannot get a new tab to open when I click the + button.

    Usually when I click the + button, a new tab would open up. But during the last couple of days it has not worked. I click it and nothing happens. I've searched for a solution, but I can not find one. What do I need to do to correct this problem?

  • I don't want a new tab to open up when I click my home page icon, can I change the settings?

    When I click new tab my home page is there, this is now great...however when I click the homepage icon, a new tab opens with my homepage, I want the homepage to appear on the tab I am in and no. Pls help.

    Are you using an add-on to replace the blank new tab with your home page? Perhaps this is controlled by a feature of the add-on?

  • I want my new tabs to open at the end of the row of tabs, how do I do that?

    When I open a new tab, I would like it to open at the end of the row of tabs, not next to the tab I'm on now. I'm used to it opening on the end like it did in older versions of Firefox. I'm sure this is an easy fix but I can't find anything in options and I'm getting frustrated.
    Thanks!

    Hello callagalla, go to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config] find(or copied/paste from there) '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' and double-click on it to make it FALSE.
    thank you

  • I cannot get a new tab to open when clicking on the + tab

    I cannot open a new tab by clicking the + sign in Firefox. This feature works in Chrome and IE.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox.
    I have done all the available updates.
    I have done a reboot 2x.
    Ctrl T will not open a new tab either; however, I can do a search for something and right click to open in a new tab.
    I use the tabs frequently and really miss them.
    HELP!!!

    hello stefbrooks, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here (look out for tab-related ones in particular)...

  • Why does a new tab not open when I click on it? I have just suffered from searchqu and successfully removed it (fingers crossed) but now I have this issue. Please help?

    Since I got infected with searchqu and (hopefully) removed this, when I try and click on the + to open a new tab, nothing happens. I have also tried clicking on file, scrolling to "New Tab" but again nothing happens. However, if I go to file then "New Window" then it will open a new window - but what a nightmare!!! Please can someone help?

    Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.

  • I want a new window to open when I click the Firefox icon on the taskbar. I don't want to have to right click, then choose "open new window". I have Windows 7.

    I want to be able to open a new browser window when I click on the Firefox icon on the taskbar. I don't want to have to right click and select anything. I have windows 7.

    This is a "pinned" icon? Try holding the Shift key when you click it -- that seems to work for me.

  • How do I stop a new tab from opening when I click a link?

    Whenever I click a link, it opens in a new tab. This just started almost a week ago, but I didn't change any settings or click anything--it just started doing it by itself. It is extremely irritating, because it just increases the number of tabs I have.

    Okay, so I tried that, but it didn't work. Any other suggestions?

  • Why can't I get a new tab to open when I click on new tab?

    I have tried to click on a new tab and it won't open.
    I have tried to press ctrl-T and a new tab won't open.
    I have gone to File New Tab and it still will not open.
    And nothing seems to be turned off anywhere that I can see on the surface.
    A new tab will only come up if a link clicks to another site or if I move a new window into firefox.

  • Multiple Tab Home refresh issue, I would like to not get 6 new tabs to open when I hit the home button, I would like it to refresh the six tabs I already have open back to the saved settings. Internet explorer does this.

    I like to have my home button restore multiple tabs for me. Sometimes I close some of the default tabs or they move from their default pages. Based on my experience with internet explorer I first select the left most tab and then hit the home button. It restores all saved tabs in the default. With Firefox is always opens brand new tabs and moves the existing ones to the right. Is there a setting to make it not open all new tabs.

    That's the way the Homepage button works in Firefox, it reloads one tabbed homepage and opens all the rest of your homepages in new Tabs, appending the Tabs that are already open.
    IIRC, the TabMix Plus extension has an option to reload your Homepages in existing tabs.

  • My tabs always open to a blank page. I want every new tab to open to my home page. Note: I DO NOT want Firefox to open with multiple tabs on my home page; I only want my home page to open whenever a click a new tab. How do I do this? Thanks.
