Best described in the picture uploaded. The top one is in Chrome - if I hover over a link it automatically opens, whereas in Firefox I have to click Library to see what's inside it. Any help?

As far as I know that's how it is supposed to work so that people do not make mistakes by hover. Can you see someones grandmother doing that...like wow am surprised Chrome allows this. As you notice when you open it there are Keyboard Short Cuts for a few, more may be available in the future. The click is confirmation of a command given and intended.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

I was wondering whether it was some kind of settings that I didn't tick but that would explain it, thanks a lot.

However, there are power users as well. I do not like having to redundantly click. Can Mozilla provide an option to bring back the hover menus or a config setting if there is one?
