Hi, as question describes, every time i click the icon it opens a new tab. I wanted a similar behavior as chrome, when you click the icon it defaults to opening a new tab instead of a new window. Is this achievable in firefox instead of resorting to right clicking and open a tab?

It happens both in either Windows taskbar or the start menu.

thanks
