So I was just browsing the internet and for some reason I cant switch tabs_ Instead of switching it is selecting multiple tabs at once and keeping the screen on one_ Also I could only type in uppercase when the caps lock was off and even with it on it types in lowercase also I cant add proper punctuation because it will act as if I am constantly holding shift which means that I cant type numbers and other special characters meaning that I cant type periods_ One more thing that I forgot to mention in the beginning is that instead of opening new tabs when I press the plus icon it will open a whole new window_ Please help me_

Did you try to close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer ?

It is possible that some status keys have the wrong state and Firefox sees them as still pressed.

Try to press all the status keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Window) a few times to see if that helps to recover from this. If it doesn't help then close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer.
