When I click on open all in new tabs command in settings, the links open in new tabs but have also started opening in separate new windows as well . If I delete/close a tab, the corresponding window will close. If I close a window, the corresponding tab closes. If I close the tabbed window, all of the otehr new windows close, but if I try to reopen Firefox I get the Firefox is still running message. Once I click on close, I can reopen Firefox. I am running on Windows 10 (fully updated) on a laptop PC. This has only just started. I have the open links in new tabs setting enabled????????

Did you check your settings to see if something wasn't changed?

It seems that the individuals windows were actually displaying in the taskbar and disappeared when I unchecked the display windows in taskbar option (not sure how it got checked in the first place though)............
