popupblocker ignores settings, blocks all

After update from 10 to 11.62. Also, it shows no more hints that a popup has been blocked. This means i have to use right click, open in new tab, to get any link to work. What's causing this?

I noticed the same thing about popups being blocked, specifically for a link that activates a javascript script to open an https link in a popup. However, I'm not sure if it ever did allow this, as its the first time I attempted it. It currently won't open the window in a new tab or window either. Any feedback would be most appreciated.

What are your current settings for the pop-up blocker? Press F12 for the Quick Preferences menu - default is "Block unwanted pop-ups" (which allows pop-ups for links you clicked on, but blocks pop-ups not related to your actions).
