I have always had Firefox Preferences set so that links open in a new window rather than the same window or a tab. But in the last few days it has stopped doing this and is opening links in the same window. The option to have links open in a new window seems to have disappeared from Preferences. Is it no longer possible? I am using Mac Lion and Firefox 39.0.

Yes, this option is not any more available in Preferences.

You can check the value of browser.link.open_newwindow in about:config tab (enter about:config in the address bar, press Enter, accept the warning and find the option above), but I'm pretty sure this option doesn't work any more. If it worked:

  • 1 = in the current tab or window
  • 2 = in a new tab
  • 3 = in a new window

Otherwise you could try to install an add-on like Open Link in New Tab, maybe you can set the inverse parameter.

Sorry, it turns out the problem I was having with links failing to open in a new window is Google's fault! It was from Google that I was finding search results were failing to open in a new window as I thought I had set up in Google preferences. It seems Google is now unable to remember Search settings from one session to the next. Each time I open Google I now have to go to 'Search settings' and click 'Open each selected result in a new browser window'. It's a real pain!!

So it'd be a Google issue… Anyway, thank you for your feedback!
