I have a new user that needs links she clicks on to pop up in a new window. I've gone into General Settings and unchecked the "Open new windows in a new tab instead". I just cannot get this to work for her. It's a new PC, fresh install, Windows 7 Pro, totally patched, latest version of Firefox. I have another user that this works for. I tried going to the PC that this is working on and gone to her %appdata%\mozilla\firefox\profiles. I copied the contents of the profile from the working computer to the one that isn't working and still I'm not getting the links to appear in a new Window.

Interesting is that the computer that is working has the General tab option checked. I've checked the add-ons on the computer that is working against the one that isn't working and nothing is different. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Some links are programmed to open in a new tab or window. Does this happen on all pages?

Right-click the link and select Open In New Window.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?
