This is common lately. On a website they say we will send you an email to validate your email. This was with Costco for one. I click in the box so they can send me an email, then I go look and there is no email. Tried many times to no avail. Other websites too, like, click the save 10% coupon then we will send it to your email entered on the website. No email received. By the way it doesn't seem to be a pop up blocker issue.

Firefox Keeps Opening Links in New Tabs (2025)

I have "Open tabs in links instead of new windows" checked.

I have no plug-ins that would cause this.

I have experimented with the various, conflicting "about:config" directions given online. (Nothing works, so I have reset about:config to default.)

  • It is also worth noting the Firefox Support page is immune to its own Dark mode. WHY.

I am going to switch to Opera, since it has none of these problems.

Before commenting or responding on this post, make sure you actually READ IT first. I am so tired of these online MANSPLAINERS being all, "Go to about:config and do blah-blah-blah," or, "This is what you do: Go to Settings > General > Tabs > make sure you check the box that says "Open tabs in links instead of new windows."

Seriously, way too many people online are like customer support agents on the phone: "Try unplugging it and wait 15 seconds, then plug it back in; try closing it and restarting it."

If anyone has any real solution, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hello,

I never received a confirmation code to sync with my other computer. I've tried to followed all the instruction per request, still no avi.

I've followed below instruciton from your team:


   Search your inbox for emails from accounts@firefox.com with the subject line "Confirm your account". Be sure to also check Spam/Junk folders.
   Add accounts@firefox.com to your whitelist/address book. After that you, will need to trigger another confirmation email by trying to sign into your account again.
   Check that you’re using the correct email address. Very often the email you’re trying to sign in with is not the email the account was created with.
   If you're using an email application to check your inbox, try using your email provider's website instead, or vice-versa.
   Disable any VPN or special DNS configuration when attempting to sign into your account
