my mozilla updated without acknowledging me first. I open it and I come to find out I can not move the tabs over to the right or the left one spot or two spots they just won't move unless I close them. I use to be able to move there anywhere i wanted or pull down and it became it's own window. Now I have to right click to make it a new window and then I can't drag and drop other tabs into it to make a window with several tabs. How do I get this back to the way it was before?

In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.

You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled (Flash and other plugins still run)

In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)

Any difference?

Note: on the new menu, Help is the ? icon toward the bottom.

Thank you for trying to help but no it didn't work. I still can not move tabs or pull a tab down to make it open a new window. They just stay where they're at and when I try to drag them right or left wherever I let go that tab becomes open. I been playing with it for hours and haven't gotten anywhere :S

Some other users have also been having strange difficulties with tabs in recent days. Did you find a solution?
