Right click on link: open in new tab or window: has there been a change from 3.6 to 4? Each time I want to open links in new tabs I open them in a new window.

I find this annoying as well... I love Firefox and truly appreciate the developers work on it, but why would you re-arrange the order of these two options?? It's like making a new model of a car and putting the brake on the right and gas pedal on the left.....

Download Menu Editor 1.2.7 from here:

You can rearrange your right click menu using it, hope it helps!

hi folks

i found a solution in a similar posting here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/791244#answer-147289

read the solution posted by cor-el: edit the userchrome.css (NB: in win7 to be found in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*****.default\chrome)

menueditor could work as well, however this works without installing additional apps.
