All links are opening in new tabs. How do I change this so links open in the same tab?

This started with upgrade to FF 10. I've tried switching Tabs options on and off but everything keeps opening in new tabs rather than switching to the link in the open window. This leads to many tabs that I have to chase to get to the page I wanted to open. Thanks in advance for your advice.

Maybe some of the extensions are causing a problem. I suggest you try using

  • safe Mode <-- clikable link for instructions --
  • do NOT make changes in the first window,just click on continue
  • use only the default firefox theme
  • if you continue to have problems; then whilst still in safe mode disable all plugins

It is also worth trying to ensure all extensions are uptodate

You may have to try using the reset controls and toolbars option from safe-mode BUT that may loose customisations that you have made.

Thanks, John. I didn't resort to the Safe Mode but by getting rid of some addons that I really didn't use, the tab situation is much better. I appreciate your time and consideration. I'll remember the Safe Mode for future use.
