How do I disable dragging tabs that opens a separate window?

Sometimes if the program or computer is running slow, when I click on the tab to highlight it for viewing, it thinks I want to drag it over somewhere, thereby creating a new window.

Can I disable this tab dragging feature? I looked at about:config but nothing readily jumped out at me.

Thanks!

Make sure that you do not drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking. Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs. You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window. You can also do this via the right-click context menu of a tab: Move to New Window You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

thanks

but the addon shows to be disabled by an administrator...

"This add-on has been disabled by an administrator. "

I'm old, just sometimes clicking around, when I click to highlight a tab, I guess my arthritis moves the mouse a hair...

Do you mean that you can't open the Add-ons web page via the link I posted above?

The link I posted above works for me, so the extension is still available.

My bad. Instead of clicking on install button near top of your linked page, I scrolled down on that page and clicked on this link:

If you want to undo detach and tear off tab, try "Undo Detach Tab" extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12689/).

Got the addon installed and it works great!

Thank you
