No matter what settings I change Firefox opens new windows instead of new tabs. How can I stop it?

After the last update when selecting a searched item a new window opens. Then when you select an item in the newly opened search window, it takes you to the item in another new window. It will continue each time you search and select. Very frustrating. Like Firefox better before the udpate.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
