Bookmarks are not opening in tabs
My cat walked across my keyboard and somehow or another shut off the function that allows me to open bookmark, either from the bookmark drop down menu or from the bookmarks that I have short cuts to. Also, when I right click on a bookmarked site to open it in a new tab, that does not work either. Is there a way to turn this back on? I have tried the function keys, restarting my computer,deleting the short cuts, adding new ones and nothing has worked. Hopefully someone can help.
Thank you

Does a middle click on a bookmark work to open the bookmark in a new tab?
Does the context menu open at all if you right click a bookmark?
Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
