Tabs open differntly on differnt installs

2 computers -- both with the same OS and version of Firefox (62.0, 64 bit). On one, new tabs open next the the currently opened tab, On the other, new tabs open at the end of the end of all tabs (far right). How can I get both system to behave the same way?

Hmm, strange that they behave differently!

Firefox's native (uncustomized) behavior is:

  • Open related tabs next to current (e.g., from a link in the current tab)
  • Open new/unrelated tabs at the end of the bar

There are now preferences to manage both of those (in Firefox 61 and later):

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful or accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste curr and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Then set:

Open Related Tabs Next to Current, Others at the End of the Bar:

browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent = false (default) browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent = true (default)

Open All Tabs Next to Current

browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent => true browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent = whatever

Open All Tabs at the End of the Bar

browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent = false (default) browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent => false

To switch a boolean-type preference between true and false, double-click it.

Can you get them set the way you like?
