firefox v.100 does not open links from thunderbird
it happens after upgarde to v.100 every click in the link in thunderbird starts only new empty FF window instead of the link content in a new tab This is not on the thunderbird side, as when I set Chromium as default browser the link is opened correctly.

Try downloading another copy of Firefox, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release You will have to point your default app to the path of the download and then the file firefox.bin. For me it's this path /home/jonzn4suse/Downloads/Firefox/Nightly/firefox/
Nightly is my daily driver and it works fine as you can see in the screenshot. I cannot get Thunderbird to open in the OS version of Firefox nor the separate copy of 100 that I run. Don't think it's a Firefox issue, but more of a desktop environment issue.

Hi sebqas, Go to Menu -> Settings -> General page In the Tabs section be sure that you have
Open links in tabs instead of new windows checked.
all the Settings are ok, the problem is that the FF open new empty window instead of a link from Thunderbird
