Sometimes tabs become pages, how can I prevent this ever happening?
From time to time, a tab will jump off the current page and become a page of its own. I hate this. How can I prevent it?

Make sure that you do not drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking. Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs.
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window. You can also do this via the right-click context menu of a tab: Move to New Window You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Then reinstall the latest version.
