Each time I open Firefox, after a few minutes, everytime I try to open a link, click on a button, etc, it automatically opens that link or button in a new tab. Also, when I open a folder on my toolbar, that has subfolders in it, a window pops up that asks me if I want to open all the subfolders at once and that its going to take a while to do so. How do I fix this?

hello, that sounds as if the ctrl-key on your keyboard is misfiring - can you try with different hardware?

as an alternative you could try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once - if it's not happening there, then maybe an addon is interfering here...

Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

You can also check for problems caused by plugins.

In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:

  • all extensions are disabled
  • the default theme is used (no persona)
  • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored
  • the default toolbar layout is used (localstore-safe.rdf)
  • the Javascript JIT compiler is disabled
  • hardware acceleration is disabled
  • plugins are not affected
  • preferences are not affected
