Popup closes after opening

When I doubleclick an image in Azure DevOps, it's supposed to open fullscreen in a popup/tab. That popup opens, and immediately closes afterwards.

How do I fix this?

Popups are explicitly allowed on this site, but it doesn't make a difference. I have tried turning off content blockers, and changing between strict and standard privacy settings.

I don't really want to go on a wild goose chase and try a billion different things. Rather, I'd like to know how to diagnose this. So how can I know what mechanism is responsible for closing the popup. This will allow me to narrow my diagnosis a great deal.

It would also help to know how I can 100% prevent anything other than the user from being able to close a tab. Just to test what happens inside that popup. Because how can I know what's going on in a popup that lives for a few milliseconds? I'm not that fast.

Does it still happen in a new profile? An easy way to test a new profile is to install Developer Edition and see if it happens there or refresh your existing profile.

I notice that you have a userChrome.css file.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the Default System theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window
