While opening links, it always open in new tabs. i just want it to open in the current tab. i made some changes to do that but it didn't help. And while switching tabs by mouse, it doesn't switch and i can't even close tabs with the mouse click. All other applications work fine, so it's not a problem with the mouse. And the mouse scroll zooms in and out the page instead of scrolling. The relevant text is pasted below-

When I open a PDF from a file in Firefox, the file appears in a new browser window. When I try to click and drag the tab to another window, it just drags the PDF tab out of the window it was in and creates a new window, so the PDF tab won't go with the windows that already existed before the PDF was opened. The new window doesn't seem to have the same extensions I have installed on the other window, but it is also not an Private Window because that icon doesn't appear in the top right like it normally does. I am also signed into the same account on both windows.

I have read previous answers from firefox in regards with new tabs. How difficult can it be to give me my free choice of my new tab url without using an unnecessary plugin / extension. Why do I need to fight to keep you guys from taking property rights on my 'New Tab Url' You came forward ....that the new tab came under attack from malware therefore we cant use custom new tab from ver 41. Well this is BS if I can set custom Home Page why not New Tab....It is the same security risk! Why is it so difficult to understand that when I open my browser and all other new tabs I want it to be my Home Page. Give me the option to set my home page and new tab as the same address. WTF mozilla dont be like Edge

If I click a link like https://example.com/hi:1 from an outside source, test it in the notes app; it goes to the line number in view-source:https://example.com/hi

This started happening relatively recently ~ 1 month or so. I've been getting around it by copy pasting into the url bar. This is not preferred and I'm wondering if there is a specific setting in about:config to turn this off; or if it's truly a bug?

I'm on macOS venture 13.1. Latest nightly version.

Thanks so much!

Dear Firefox Support,

I am using Firefox, version 115.0.

Could anybody please tell me how I could close multiple tabs at once? Sometimes, I have a few tabs open, and wish to close all of them, without seperately going into each tab, and closing each one manually. Could I do this, please? Marek

In my search suggestions in the search bar, when I click "youtube.com" for this example, it now says "switch to tab" which automatically switches to an open youtube tab, rather than opening a new tab.

There is no way to turn this 'feature' off. It doesn't let me pick which youtube tab it switches to, just the first one regardless of how many instances of a website there are open.

Please remove this feature, or give us a way to turn it off.

I was on my computer browsing reddit and Twitter, when I accidentally moved my mouse to the bottom of the screen and it brought up my toolbar. I already had Firefox open so I hadnt needed to look at my toolbar all day. I noticed there was an incognito tab open for a camgirls page on a porn site. I wasn't in incognito mode and have never once used incognito.

I didn't click any bad links or anything to my knowledge since I was mostly just playing neopets and browsing my social media, not clicking any links. My husband is sleeping and I asked him if he did this on my computer and he said no and went back to sleep and I couldn't get anymore answers out of him.

I don't want to jump to conclusions if it was just a popup that I somehow did. So can a popup open an incognito window if I'm not in incognito? Or is my husband cheating on me with camgirls behind my back when I'm at work?

I recently had to get a new hard drive for my computer as my old one no longer functioned. The problem is that when I opened my firefox browser I was not prompted to restore my last session and all of my tabs and windows are now gone. Is there a way to reset the browser to a previous date so that I can restore all of my tabs?
