Every time I try to open a new tab it opens a new window instead. As an example lets say I have my e-mail up on the starting tab but want to look at youtube vids on another tab. Normally I can just right click open as new tab no problem it will stay on the same window. Now when I try to do that it opens up a new window instead. Even if I click the + next to the tab that normally opens another tab. This started after I downloaded the newest update last night (may have came out a day or two ago I have a bad habit of putting it off for a day or two). I have not changed any settings before or after the update. I can drag the new window back to the starting window as a tab but any tab I try to make from that will also lead to a new window opening instead.
