Why does ctrl+Left click a link open a new window? It should open a new tab in the current window.

When I try to Ctrl+Left click to open a link in a new tab, it will open it in a new window instead. Then while in the new window if I Ctrl+Left click a link it will open a new tab in the second window. If I then go back to the first Firefox window and Ctrl+Left click a link the second firefox window will pop up and the new tab will be created there. Why won't the Ctrl+Left click work when only one window is open?

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).

I started in safe mode, and the Ctrl+left click worked like it was supposed to, only opening the new tab in the current window. I made no changes at all, then restarted Firefox in normal mode, and Ctrl+left click is still working like normal. Not sure if something I did fixed it or not.

Its is most likely a plug-in interference. Or you pressed shift instead of control.
