Hello. As i said in the title, every time i try and open any page while on an opened, blank "new tab", be it a frequently visited, url in the address bar or a google search, it doesn't load. I can however put in a URL into a tab i already have open and hit alt-enter and it opens in a new tab successfully, same with searches. Any idea what's going on?
