Reopening, as I'm not convinced this is a duplicate as the dates are different.

Reporter, can you clarify the steps to repeat a bit more? I've just tried this on the nightly of the same date and this is working fine for me. Maybe a screencast or screenshot would help.

You could also go to Tools -> Web Developer -> Browser Console and see if any errors appear when you select the "open all in tabs" option.

You are right, got a message

TypeError: PlacesUIUtils.openContainerNodeInTabs is not a function[Learn More] browser.xul:1:1 
    	oncommand chrome://browser/content/browser.xul:1 

On updating again to from in the about 65.0b2 (64-bit) to 65.0b3 (64-bit), the bug went away. It is possible my nightly was a few days old?

Aha you were on the developer edition version, that's not quite equivalent to nightly (having the version number as well as the data helps!).

This is a dupe in that case.
