Details

Not sure when, maybe around 15 June 2012 update for Aurora, am unable now to use CTRL+right click to open all links in a folder. Happened once before, waited a week thinking it was some new tab management thing then no resolution so just copied over an old profile to my Win 7 User Apps Roaming subidrectory etc which solved the problem. Now problem back again (maybe 2 months later) and cannot fix. A big deal for me as I check the folder involved several times daily. I can open with more clicks but very annoying. I do use AiOSidebar and Colorful Tabs so there might be some Add-On interaction but it has been working flawlessly for months til last week and these update to developer builds as well. Happy to edit about:config if it can fix the problem. Any ideas or others having this problem? Thanks

Sorry - I need to correct this - I meant CTRL + click (or in my case tap on a mousepad) vs right click. The right click sort of works, but it involves 2 extra steps. Should be just CTRL + single tap to open all in tabs.

Maybe but you should retstart Firefox in safe mode to check if one of your add-ons is the culprit. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_Safe_Mode
I'm unable to reproduce this on a new profile. I suggest trying what Loic mentioned in comment 2 to rule out add-ons.
Hi-thanks for the help. I have about 10 add-ons running and disabled 1 by 1 but still have the problem. However, it seems others using All In One Sidebar having the problem - bug reports on the AiOS site. But, it also seems to have occurred across different FF releases around 8 June. So there is some interaction going on.
Yes, AIOS is known to cause this kind of issues. Upgrade to the latest version or wait for a new release fixing issues with FF13.

Hi as of Aurora build 15 today 29 June 12 - problem has been fixed somehow. All working as it should, so what ever the Aurora software beavers were upto yesterday, that did the trick. Checked and it was not caused I believe as AiOS upgrade.
Marking VERIFIED WORKSFORME based on comment 6. Thanks Rocketboy.
