Any way to make add ons launch in new window instead of new tab?

When I open add ons, it always opens in a new tab. I'm bad about having a LOT of tabs, and it's a pain to have to go to the bottom to deal with add ons, then find the tab I was on before I launched it.

Is there any way to make add ons launch in a new window instead of a tab?

Thanks in advance for help with this!

Once you close the add-on, you should go back to where you called it.

There's no built-in way to do change how the Add-ons menu item or keyboard shortcut works.

You can create a bookmark for the Add-ons page (press Ctrl+d while on the page) and save it somewhere convenient. Then you can Shift+click the bookmark to launch that page in a new window.
