You can hover the tab on a Firefox window item on the Windows Taskbar to bring this window to the foreground.

Yes, I have tab when I pressing Ctrl+N.
</p><p>And fantastic, your solution worked.
But could you please tell me why this option is false by default? and why is accessible just via "about:config" and not (for example) via context menu, like Google Chrome?

<p>Is the tab missing in a window if you open a new window normally, for example, by pressing Ctrl+n?
</p><p>Websites <em>can</em> pop up dialog-style windows that only have the address bar, no tabs, no buttons, etc. For example, try the third link on this page:
</p><p><a href="http://jeffersonscher.com/res/popit.html" rel="nofollow">http://jeffersonscher.com/res/popit.html</a>
</p><p>If you want a tab on that window, you can change a hidden setting. Note that for sites that carefully size pop-ups, this may cause some content not to fit and you might have to enlarge the window or change the zoom level.
</p><p>(1) In a new tab, type or paste <strong>about:config</strong> in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
</p><p>(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste <strong>dom.d</strong> and pause while the list is filtered
</p><p>(3) Double-click the <strong>dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar</strong> preference to switch it from false to true, meaning that sites are disabled from hiding the toolbar.
</p><p>Then try that third link again and you should have a tab you can drag.
</p><p>Success?

</p><p>Firefox allows you to drag a tab from Window 2 to a the tab bar of Window 1 to make it a tab there. <em>Resize Window 2 so that you can see the tab bar of Window 1, then click and drag the tab you want to move from the tab bar of Window 2 to the tab bar of Window 1. You should see a fat "up arrow" as you move along the tab bar of Window 1 showing where it will be inserted.</em>
</p><p>I can't think of any other way to do it in Firefox. There have been some extensions over the years for this, I don't know which ones still work, but you could investigate:
</p>
<ul><li> <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/monitor-master/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/monitor-master/</a>
<ul><li> Tab context menu: Move a tab to another open window
</li></ul>
</li></ul>
<p>Tab Utilities and Tab Mix Plus might also have something but they have had some issues with Firefox 40.

</p>Are there particular links that cause this problem?

</p><p>If a website has specified that a link should open in a new window with specific features, such as a particular size, or hiding the toolbar, then Firefox will still open that kind of scripted link in a new window instead of diverting it to a tab. Firefox has this exception because such scripted window may be dialogs associated with the page, such as a date picker, and it may be inconvenient to have to switch to a tab to use it. But if that's the problem, there is a hidden setting to force them into a new tab anyway.
</p><p>This is about to get a little nerdy... match your settings to what I've bolded below:
