Description of the issue:
This is in regards to a previous post that is “closed” now. I’ve found a resolution that works for me so far.
Every time I cmd+click to open a link in a new tab, the browser instantly crashes - no warnings, no messages, just immediately gone.
How can this issue be reproduced?
- Open any page (have tested with personal sites, Google, random websites, all the same).
- Hold Command key and click on a link.
Expected result:
Link should open in a new tab.
Right-clicking and choosing “Open Link in New Tab” functions as expected.

Additional Information:
This is what worked for me: deactivate or change the “Enable Hover Text” settings (behind the Options… button) in System Preferences > Accessibility > Zoom. Choose a different “Activation Modifier” key and the cmd + click crashes should stop.
