Currently I can't open a New Tab even when I click on the + sign or try to open over the Menu command. The only way that it opens is when I browse over the link and click with the right mouse button. What do I need to do specifically to open a blank New Tab either by clicking the +sign next to an already open Tab and/over the Menu command.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
  • If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
  • Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.
