Greetings Moz://a users, Since last update FF 60.0.1 my links that are supposed to open in a new tab are just blanks. the only way to open those links are with a right click and 'open in new tab' some do not works at all, for instance, google last confidential terms notification. i just can't open that page at all, because right click on it show a file not found message. Same if i restore a session, all the tabs that were in background are blanks with no way to reload those pages as the reload button is greyed. But the pages titles are showing, just not the page.

i checked the about:config and yes, the browser.newtabpage.enabled setting is set to true.

Ok, thank you FredMcD,

I found out what the problem was :

' Load on Select ' add-ons that was working fine before and was very useful to me since quantum was released. But it no longer works properly and i actually do not need it anymore.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

no, it seems that in safe mode the problem isn't there anymore. Do you think it is caused by some of my add-ons ? I'll first try to update those
