First off, I turned off the computers hot keys. When I type either a B, H, N, T, or W Firefox does an undesirable act. When I hit a B, Bookmarks opens as a new tab. When I type a H, History opens, N a new window, T a new tab, and W Firefox closes.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
