Links from Google automatically opening in new tabs
Ever since I downloaded Firefox, I have been having an issue where when i click on a link from a search engine, it automatically opens the link in a new tab. I've looked around in the settings menu, but I couldn't find any way to alter it. The closest option would be to open link in new window, but I just want to open the link in the tab that I am currently in. I have tried going into about:config although I couldn't find any setting that successfully fixed the issue. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
Thanks! - T

Hi, you need to go to the settings on the search engine results page. In Google for example, look for Settings > Search settings, then deselect the box 'Open each selected result in a new browser window.' I know it says window but that is actually tab!
Incidentally, if you don't want bookmarks to open in a new tab, make sure that the following about:config entry in Firefox is set to False: browser.tabs.LoadBookmarksInTabs

Note that for the Google website you can set where to open links in the Google Search Settings.
Thanks for your help guys! It worked! :)

I have the same problem and it won't fix the issue. I have tried this and the checkbox was already deselect. Any help. Thanks
