Open in new tab context menu missing?
Open in new tab context menu missing?
The Subject pretty much says it all. Where did it go? Which extension had it or has it? THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL FEATURE!!

Re: Open in new tab context menu missing?
So your saying that for any link you encounter on a website, when you right click that link, the topmost context menu is not, "Open link in new tab"?
If that is true the only thing I can think of is a bad installation. I would uninstall and then reinstall from a fresh download.

Re: Open in new tab context menu missing?
I just did an uninstall/re-install of 32-bit Slimjet.
In the bookmarks bar, there is no "Open in new tab" when I right click the context menu over a link. Other context menu items are there, but not "open in new tab" as there was in the past.
In a web page, there is a little "+" next to link and when I right click there is NOT context menu at all, and the link opens in a new page.

In Settings search for Registry, then click the button to repair the registry settings, I would restart the browser after that and see if there has been an improvement.

Thank you for your help and advice - however, Repair Browser Registry did not work apparently! (see screenshot attached):

This is the only other thing I can think of.
Check your extensions. Especially any you have recently installed. Turn them off one at a time and restart and test.

Re: Open in new tab context menu missing?
Yes, it sounds like an extension might be blocking it. Does it appear in Incognito mode?
