When I open a new tab, a new window gets created with all of my previous tabs and my new tab.

Sometimes I will have 7 windows open with several tabs open in each of them. Why is this happening and how can I stop Mozilla from creating these unnecessary windows?

You can start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
