I have a new PC, Win 10. I copied over my settings from my old PC. When I click an option that requires my browser to open, i get a message taht FF is already open. I didn't get that on my W7 PC. How do i get the app to just open anotehr tab on FF?

Thx.

Hi, Windows 10 is causing some problems and I have a Laptop that runs Insider Preview Windows 10 upgrade, and a Windows 10 preinstalled, and get messages like this all the time. I think that MS need to do a few more updates for things to settle down.

You might want to open Task Manager and see if FF is in there. If it is Highlight it and click on end process. Then try open FF again.

Also have you updated your software, try that if you havent and see what happens.

I already have FF running. The app won't access the FF running and open another tab; it's trying to open FF again. Does this make sense?
