when I click a link it opens a new window and not a new tab, why? The setting in options appears correct
Since a few days ago whenever I click a link it opens a new window rather than a new tab, the options setting is set to open a new tab not a new window, however when I have just clicked the help on the menu bar it opened a new tab not a new window.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
- Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
- Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Thank you very much, this has fixed it.
