You can use the PopupBlocking policy.

i gave it a try to create a policies.json on /etc/firefox . but failed for me. {

 "policies": {
     "PopupBlocking": {
         "Allow": ["https://www.xxx.net/"],
         "Default": true | false,
         "Locked": true | false
   }
 }

}

thanks a lot. i finally found two methods to meet my need. 1. set dom.disable_open_during_load to false 2. or copy a pre-set permissions.sqlite to profile directory.

What popup? No screenshot of the issue or what popup doesn't help others figure or identify what is happening here?

You need to select only one of the "true | false" choices.

{
  "policies": {
    "PopupBlocking": {
      "Allow": ["https://www.xxx.net/"],
      "Default": true,
      "Locked": false
    }
  }
}
