Since installing an icon-editing add-on, I can't open tabs any more / I can only use one tab at a time.

Ever since I installed the add-on Favicon Picker 2 that lets you change the bookmark icons, I can't open tabs any more. The second tab will open, but if you try to go to a site, the FIRST tab redirects to that site. Basically, I can only use one tab at a time. Is there any way I can keep this add-on and use tabs?

What app was it that you installed? was it an extension? if you try disabling it, does your problem go away?

Oh, wow - look at that, you're right :) I didn't want to uninstall the add-on as I like the feature, but simply by disabling it you can keep the new icons AND use tabs. Thanks dude!

(The add-on is Favicon Picker 2 0.6.2.15 by the way - some of the user reviews report the same problem.)

Glad it works! You may want to report the issue to the maker of tha ddon so they can fix it in future versions.
