I absolutely hate the way the options opens in a new tab instead of a new window. Is there any way to disable it so that the options opens in a new window like before?

The browser.preferences.inContent is no longer supported in Firefox 42 and later (Bug 1140495), so it is not possible to open a standalone window by setting this pref to false.

You can possibly create a button on the Bookmarks Toolbar to the about:preferences page and hold the Shift key and left-click to open the page in a new window.

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension.

  • General UI (1): Open options page (about:preferences) in a window

If that isn't working or the choice is missing then you might be using a theme that isn't supported. You can check that by switching to the default theme.

You can toggle browser.preferences.inContent to false on the about:config page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

This tip worked great when I used it a few months ago. I just upgraded to Firefox 42.0, and now Options opens in a tab again instead of a new window. I checked the about:config page and browser.preferences.inContent is still set to false. Is there any way to change this behavior in version 42.0?
