How do I turn off the automatic block of links I click on so I don't have to click on "allow" every time?
Ever since the last update, any link I click on from anywhere that opens a new browser tab triggers a message saying Firefox has prevented the page from opening, and I have to click on an "Allow" button. I know it's some security feature, but I can't figure out how to turn it off.

If I understand your question correctly:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste access and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the accessibility.blockautorefresh preference is bolded and "modified" or "user set" to true, double-click it to restore the default value of false
Does that fix it?

I haven’t tried your solution yet, but maybe I can add something for clarification. Any time I click on a link from my email, a webpage, etc. that would cause a new browser tab to open, I get a message in the new tab saying “Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page” with a button for “Allow” that I have to click, even from sites I have added to the safe list. Basically, I just want the link to open. I’m sure it’s some security setting that got turned on with a recent FF update, bc it just recently started happening. Would your solution still apply?
Jscher2000 - Beautiful. Immediately fixed. Thank you! Is there anything else I might need to do to ensure security features are still intact after doing that? I didn’t open myself up to viruses or malware, did I?
Nothing to do with that it is Accessibility, speech, blind, deaf so no,
Please mark this as Solved with the Answer that worked please so others can find it..
