Over the course of my computing experience there have been three major catastrophes caused by me. namely:- Deleting the entire 'windows' section of the registry.
- Installing a large norton product
- Upgrading to FireFox 1
This is seriously a bad move. It fails to read my bookmarks, the menu becomes unusable once you click 'customise toolbar', all my extensions are obsolete, it seems to have lost all of its tabbed browsing support (or specifically, I can't make any link open in a new tab)
So what did I do? Shove all the old firefox files back in their place. Completely replaced the new ones. Now all I have to do is reinstall a few extensions, get that tabbed browser support, and get firefox to figure out which version it is.
What a night.
[Updated to yell: WHY WON'T ANYTHING OPEN IN A NEW TAB/WINDOW?]
[Updated to calm down: ok, so I uninstalled the whole shebang, reinstalled and to my surprise all the extensions remain. All is well.] Previous Next

 | Posted on 01/19/2005 I don't know why it won't work for you. I've got version 1 and it operates fine with tabs. Hell, it works even better with this Tabbrowser Prefferences extention because now whenever something -would- open in a new window instead does so in a new tab.
Perhaps you should just make a backup of your user data and reinstall Firefox completely. |
