I'm confused as to Opening a New Tab v. Opening a New Webpage. I recently uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, and now I am no longer able to open a new page while leaving my current page alone. Very appreciative of any feedback. Thank you!

Have you tried to right-click the link and selecting 'Open in new tab/window?'

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
