Ctrl+Tab not working

Hello - it seems since the most recent update Ctrl+Tab (go to next tab) is not working, either in Normal or Safe Mode. All other Ctrl functions are working (Ctrl+Shift+T, Ctrl+T etc.).

Is only Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab not working?

Do "Ctrl + Page Up" and "Ctrl + Page Down" work?

Did you try to close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer?

It still isn't working using Safe Mode...not sure how I should further troubleshoot the issue once in that mode.
