SM 2.53.1 opening windows and tabs

[beoenduser]

SM 2.53.1 is opening windows and tabs instead of just tabs, even though I have it set to open tabs instead of windows. How do I fix this or is it a bug?
I'm on Windows 7.

P.S. is there an easy way to switch user agent strings? I used to have a great add-on that did that. Now with this new version of SM, it's not available.

Windows & tabs.

Explain?


User agents.

You can set a general override:
general.useragent.override
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Quantum/68.0

Site specific override:
general.useragent.override.bge.com
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2125.122 Safari/537.36


(I'd figure that there are still extensions out there that work, though unfamiliar myself.)

Yes, on Windows7 it is showing multiple windows open and they correspond to each open tab.
I wish I could show you a screenshot of the taskbar so you can see what I mean but I don't have access to an image storage site like I used to (they have clamped down on hot linking).

I used to be able to change the user agent string using the PrefBar extension. It seems to still be in use in SeaMonkey on my other computer (Windows 8) but I didn't see it as available when I was setting up SM on my Windows 7 machine.

@ElTxolo: Thank you.

I'm just annoyed that many of my favorite extensions are dropping Seamonkey as one would drop a very heavy rock.

• You're welcome !!
  
  
  For the issue of extensions that you can NOT find/install.
  
  You can copy them, from the profile you have on the other machine with Win8.
  
  Check, how to do it, in this article from MozillaZine Knowledge Base:
• Transferring data to a new profile - SeaMonkey - MozillaZine Knowledge Base (... almost at the end of the text, in the section extensions)
