When I am browsing ANY site and want to open link in new tab (in right-click menu "Open link in new tab" OR CTRL+click) site where I am (where the link is showed) decrease font and pictures (like "zoom out"). It happen on ANY site. When I CTRL+clisk on few links on the same site, to open new tabs for future reading, original site become so small (font, pictures) that it cannot be read

Chosen solution

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Ctrl+mousewheel will zoom, but if your finger isn't touching the wheel, then the zoom shouldn't change. Maybe there is an incompatibility with your mouse driver software??

Anyway, to reset zoom, you can use Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) or

View menu > Zoom > Reset

When you are using the orange Firefox button (short menus), you can tap the Alt key or press F10 to display the classic menu bar to use the old View menu.

Thanks for help - you were right, the problem with zoom was caused with one add-on.
