How do I stop Firefox from opening a new tab every time I click on a link? I just want to go to the link, not open new tabs. Time wasted by having to close tabs

I'm feeling sick of Firefox because it's wasting my time -- I do a lot of online research, and I just want to simply click on a link and go to the site! Instead Firefox browser opens a new tab every time I click on a link. Which means I have to wade through a pile of old tabs, and spend precious moments closing them.

Is my brower not working right? Or can the settings be changed? Or is that just the way Firefox works nowadays? I've tried various Tab Options -- but none of them simply make it so a link goes straight to a site, without opening a new tab or window.

Help!

Solução escolhida

Go to: OPTIONS --> GENERAL --> TABS

Make sure only the third box is unchecked ["When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately"]

I usually close and reopen the browser after making changes to settings and test to see if they worked.

I'm not a super user but in case it helps, ctrl+click is supposed to open link in a new tab. Worth a quick check you don't have a sticky control key on your keyboard causing this. Otherwise, I had understood that you'd require a plugin to achieve this, so check what add-ons you have in case something has downloaded.

Edit: I also note that middle-clicking will open in a new tab - either a third button or by 'clicking' the mousewheel - a quick test of a different mouse to rule it out couldn't hurt as well.

Beyond this, you'll need one of the very clever people here to assist you.

When you just click a link, it should open in the current tab. Check out the keyboard and mouse as afaik said.
