Hi,

I have noticed the following recent change in behavior :

[MAC OS Ventura 13.5.1 - Firefox 117.0]

Firefox is and has always been my default browser.

Firefox not yet running - If I receive an email with a hyperlink in it and click on it, Firefox will open my Home Page but not the page the hyperlink refers to.

Firefox already open - If I click the hyperlink in the email, Firefox will open a new tab with the page the hyperlink refers to - ok

Until recently clicking on a hyperlink in a email would open the page the link refers to irrespective of whether Firefox was already running or not. I would need to revert to that behavior. Is there a parameter I can change to have it restored ?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks beforehand.

Hello,

Additional information for post above : refreshing Firefox did not cure the problem.
