Running Firefox version 35.0.1 in Windows 8.1.

In Tools>Options>Tabs, my choice is to 'open new window in a new tab instead.' Whether the box is checked or not checked, I ONLY get tabs, no window. I do not want tabs for anything.

How can I fix it so I check the box and get a window?

Thank you.

Uncheck that box in order to open new tabs in a new window.

To have complete control, however you can right click on any link and choose "Open in new window" regardless of what is checked in that setting.

I hope this helps.
