Firefox crashed, and now I have a constant stream of blank tabs that keep popping up in front of all the others. They won't delete.

First all the Tabs I had opened suddenly defaulted to the Firefox help page. Now, I have a constant stream of blank tabs that keep popping up in front of the others. I click to delete them but they just pop back up again. Also every time I delete a tab while browsing a website, I get another blank one added to the front of all the others. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and it didn't help.

Did you make sure that you do not have a problem with a sticky F1 key on your keyboard?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See:

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

If that doesn't help then try a new profile.

You're a genius! I jiggled the F1 key around, and the problem seems to have stopped. Thanks so much, it was driving me crazy!
