Hi, I'd like to select the option to open new links in a new window instead of new tab but the option is greyed out. Can anyone help me on this, please? I tried to untick "Block popup windows" to see if that would help but it didn't.

Do you mean the setting in Options > Tab or in the right-click context menu of a link on web pages?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode 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

Thanks, it probably causes Tab Mix Plus add-on for some reason...
