Firefox Community Forum

Hello- When I am on a website and click link I would expect and want a new Tab to open-- I want it to open it in a new Tab and leave the page I'm on alone so I can go back to the original page.

Instead, Firefox overwrites that page and the tab with the a new one, and I have to hit the back button to get back to that original page. And most often the back arrow button is grayed out and I can't get back at all.

In settings, I've tried checking the box for: 'Open links in tabs instead of new windows' but that doesn't do it. I've also tried checking the box, 'When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately,' and that doesn't do it either.

I know that a work-around is to hold down the Ctrl key while clicking a link, but I'd like to set it as a default so I don't have to do that. That's a pain and not a natural function when browsing. To be sure, I want to click on links and that creates a new Tab without Ctrl Keys.

Thanks!

I am using win 7 ultimate, with fire fox 115.32.1 ESR,. The LinkedIn main window gets squished to top left corner in a small square, other pages open up normally. Internet archive site does not sign me in as the blue button of sign-in doesn't function. I can't change pass words nor sign-in. Website Cell Press opens research papers in a single verticle line in left corner, downloaded pdf papers open normally. Other browsers like Comodo and Chrome do not cause such issues.

I signed up for a free trial of PC tuneup on Aol. After I ran Pc Tuneup I was logged out of FireFox. I signed back into FireFox, but all of my Internet shortcuts and bookmarks will not work.

Firefox is repeatedly opening many "previous tabs and windows". I looked for solutions on the Help and online.

I unticked the box "open previous tabs and windows" days ago and have repeatedly restarted Firefox and my computer since then. I have done all updates. I am using Windows 11 on a Lenova T480s.

I am over this and will switch to another browser soon if a solution accessible to me (ie I am not a techie and I don't have money to pay someone) is not offered.

Please note I find my browser history useful. I don't want to delete this on the routine off chance it may solve this problem that Firefox have invented.

When I opened up Firefox this evening, websites stopped working if "DNS over HTTPS" is set to "Max Protection". In some instances, such as YouTube, the website loads, but it acts like you're offline and tells me to turn on my Wi-Fi even though it's already on and running fine. Weirdly, it seems that setting DNS over HTTPS to Max Protection, loading a website, set DNS over HTTPS to a lower setting, and then reloading the website fixes the issue, but it'd still be nice if we didn't have to go through the hassle at all. Thank you for your time and patience.

Sincerely, Watching Forests
