I am unsure what changed since it did not do this last night and I did not update any thing. the main problem now is it interferes with display fusion. I have tried going to the about:config and setting browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick to false but this just seems to have a whole new window open rather than a tab and does not fix the problem. I have also tried running it in safe mode and changing accounts nothing seems to work.

You can set this pref to false on the about:config page.

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

I set that to false and it is still opening new taps when I middle click.
