Everytime I open a new firefox window, a new tab opens with the new window. How do I stop this?

Everytime I open a new Firefox window, the new window opens to the page of hope (as I want him), but then a tab opens with the new window. I want Firefox to stop doing this. When I open a new window I want just the window to open it. I don't know how to solve this problem I've known idea how I did that happen. First of all, it happened when I hit Ctrl + N to open a new window, but I did not hit the "N" itself. I pressed one of the other keys around the "N" and this issue has started.

It's quite strange!

Have you tried to reset Firefox? You will find all the information you need to reset, here:

See you soon!

  • When I open the Firefox browser, as well as my homepage of opening, a new tab opens in the same time, how can I stop this please?

    This problem has only just begun and I don't know why. When I click the icon to open the Firefox browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens to the sides of my Home Page tab. I checked and none are tube not characters in my address of the home page.

    This seems to take place (e.g., Firefox opens my home page AND a new tab at startup - unsolved).

    In case one of your extensions is in question, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

    Help > restart with disabled modules (Flash and other plugins still works)

    A new tab opens by default like a Virgin tab (topic: empty).

    If this isn't the case, then an extension has changed this behavior.

  • Open new tabs whenever I click on a link - multiple tabs to open wwhen I SLEEP. How can I stop this other than switching browsers?

    Here is an example. I use a Net address to my email. Click to open an email and a new tab opens with two options clicka-able. You must click on Net address which will open the email, and the other is to open a new tab.
    Also, I leave my computer on at night. I wake up to four tabs.

    Great to hear. Thank you for going through the trouble to install the add-in of troubleshooting and registration of your extensions. That makes it a lot easier.

  • Startup of Firefox now has auto-fill on the search. How can I stop this?

    Start of Firefox, Google search, used to have no AutoFill for searches when I type one search, I want to see suggestions for my research. It is extremely annoying. It's the only reason why I use Firefox Start. Google will not allow you to choose to fill in for research. How can I make this stop in Firefox?

    I have been using the page and it still works without the troublesome AutoComplete feature. The only downside is when I look at the news links. They are a bit limited, but I can work around that. Thank you.

  • Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network. How do I remove this error message?

    I just installed a new internet provider and all of my connections are working fine, but I constantly get this "Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network." I have my electrician of the internet modem connected to my office. I have also two wireless devices connected to the appearance of the Modem wireless. I constantly get this error message mentioned above, and I want to get rid of it.

    This means that all that he says.  Your Windows system has an address that already exists on your local network.  Turn your system off and use a working system to locate this address and to which unit he belongs.  In most LANs, the router's DHCP server.  You may be able to ask the router which addresses are used and see what device uses this address, but I suspect not.

    Duplicate addresses can occur when two systems received the same address manually, or when we got an address in the DHCP of the router range. It is unclear when this happened because he is not in control of the address and puts the address duplicate to a second system.  You need to track down, ensuring that all addresses manually asigned are out of the DHCP range, that you book the address of the router, if you want the device to use this address, or configure all devices to request the address of the router using DHCP.

  • The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005) - keep from appearing when you open a pdf file. How can I stop this?

    I'm on a 64-bit Windows 7 Pro computer and just upgraded to the most recent Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  When I open a PDF file a window opens saying "the application could not start (0xc0000005).  Click OK to close this application"I click OK and the window opens up again about three or four times before it finally stopped.  My PDF file is then visible.  This is driving me crazy!  I tried to use "Repair Installation" in the Menu Help, but it has no effect.  I downloaded and installed the latest update - and this miserable message keeps popping up!  Before you do a system restore to revert to the previous version, can someone please tell me how to solve this problem?  Thank you very much.

    Hello

    There might be a chance of the previous version left overs. Try uninstalling Acrobat using cleaning tool: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

    Then try to reinstall it and then see if that solves the problem.

  • All my .exe files will open in the same program, how can I solve this problem?

    I double clicked a .exe program and she appeared with an error saying that it was not a correct path, so I right click on it hung over 'Open with' clicked "choose program by default" found and selected it clicked OK, and I don't see the "Always" use the selected program to open this type of file until after I clicked OK , but now all my .exe programs open the same and the .exe .lnk changed, I was about to restore my computer to the previous version, but none of them go back far enough, what should I do to cancel the default program?

    Darn, I was hoping that the registry itself would correct after a reboot. I always try to this for you. Following is a somewhat similar to what was posted by hetti:

    However, this does not mean you're going to in the registry. You create a file that will do the registry work for you. According to this link, the fixittool only works for Vista.

  • When I press tab, annoying toolbar appears in front of my window showing all my open windows, how can I stop this?

    When I use the tab key on my keyboard to try to move between fields on the screen, instead of move the cursor, I have a toolbar that appears in front of the window, showing all my open windows. I don't want to get more, please tell me how to stop it.

    Sounds Windows thinks that the Alt key is pressed (yet).

    This help if you press all the keys (shift, Ctrl, Alt) state several times?

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

  • Windows are always asking me to save e-mail attachments when I try to open them in the email. How can I stop this?

    When I double-click an attachment in and by e-mail, whether it's a file pdf, Word, Powerpoint, Excel files, or anything else, it always opens a file save dialog box and I have to choose where to save the file first, before I open it. I'm used to just file open and then if I want to record I'll save slot in the document and save it. How can I change the settings so that's how are treated attachments? This problem is there for whatever else I'm looking for e-mails, whether through Hotmail or OWA... Thank you!

    Thanks again for answering my question. I ended up reinstalling Google Chrome and it must have reset some default settings somewhere. I have more the problem to not try this last suggestion.

    Kind regards.
  • When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. How can I stop this?

    When I open a link that opens a new Firefox window, it opens 2 tabs instead of one. A tab is the link that I opened and the second tab is just a generic Mozilla tab with links to 12 pages like Facebook, Youtube, etc. This tab opens on top too, so I always have to close to get what I'm looking for. How can I stop this from happening?

    Hello. Thanks for all the posts on this topic. I have the same problem, as described by the op. But, while I use Avast, I have NOT the add-on from Astromenda which has been mentioned. However, I have the SB installed toolbar, and it has been recently updated, 29/12. I suspect that it is the culprit, if this problem is in fact not caused by an update of Firefox (my tiles have recently been reset on new tabs, and I suspect that Firefox for this problem).

    I am ready to remove the toolbar from the SB, but prefer to keep it (Yes, I admit I'm stupid) If this annoying 'new window = 2 tabs with 'new tab' at the top' would just leave.

    Apart from the removal of the toolbar SB... does anyone have suggestions? I don't see that all recently added add-ons/extensions that I don't recognize, apart from the update of the toolbar of SB.

    Updated: 5 minutes after this announcement, I disabled the toolbar of SB and restarted Firefox. No change.
