"New tab" in bookmark toolbar does not open new tab. Instead it blanks the current tab with the new tab page. How to fix?

I purchased a new computer (Lenovo Ideapad 540S) with Windows 10 OS. Reinstalled Firefox. My bookmark toolbar has a "New Tab" Icon. In my old computer, clicking "new tab" would open a new tab and display the new tab page. Now, clicking the New Tab icon creates a new tab page on the page that I am starting from. In other words -- no new tab opens, but the current page I am looking at becomes a new tab page. I still get a new tab if i click the "+" sign in the tabs and if I right click on the New Tab icon and and select "open in new tab" but I thought the New Tab Icon was supposed to .. you know ... open a new tab.

Hi PaulRosenzweig, there isn't usually a New Tab icon mixed in with bookmarks. Possibly that is a bookmark, and by default, bookmarks load into the currently displayed tab.

Firefox does have a preference to direct all bookmarks to a new tab, but that may be more than you would want. If you want to try it:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste intab and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInTabs preference to switch the value from false to true
