I can't open a new tab

more options

All of my previous tabs are open, but I can't open a new tab. A new tab will not open when I use the Shift+T shortcut, click the plus button at the end of my other tabs, or when I go to File, New Tab. If anyone can help me, please let me know. Thank you!

Thank you so much! It was a different toolbar apparently causing the problem, but your answer steered me in the right direction.
