Wannan tattunawa ta zama daɗaɗɗiya. Yi sabuwar tambaya idan ka na bukatar taimako.

Ever since the upgrade, my computer will not let me pick a new tab. I can't hit the plus or ask for a tab. How do I correct this??????

Ever since the firefox did an automatic update, it will not let me select a new tab. I can't hit the plus sign or even if I click on New tab..it will Not work. If you right click on something and say open in new tab it will but it WILL NOT let me open a new blank tab to search in since the update.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
