Why has Firefox suddenly started trying to close everything when I try to close a preview pane of a single, seperate webpage??

Since the last update, everytime I try to close a firefox window from the preview, firefox wants to close ALL of my windows and tabs. I just want to close a pop up, I don't think it's unreasonable to be able to do that without actually switching to it. I haven't had any problem with this in the past.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
