ADP Update tab spam

Post by Etanarvazac »

Everytime ADP updates, it opens a ridiculous number of tabs in my browser. This last update was 25:

Tabs: https://imagebin.ca/v/7S19Ip7ZMtet
Count: https://imagebin.ca/v/7S19vXSAqccS

This has happened in the last 3 updates. Each update seems to add more tabs than the last one...

Thank you very much for reporting that problem. This seems to be quite the rare occurrence, but we have heard of reports of similar behavior in the past (see ui#1365). That being said, we haven't been able to reproduce this problem on our end yet, so any further information that you could provide may be helpful for us to narrow in on what might be the cause of this problem.

For example:
- Extension version
- Browser version
- Other installed extensions
- Other programs that may interfere with the browser (e.g. anti-virus, VPN, cleaner software)
- Did all tabs open at once, or rapidly one after another?
- Did the tabs open after you opened a new tab, or suddenly while you were looking at a website, or while you were away from your computer?
- Have you noticed any other strange behavior by the extension or in the extension settings?
- The last times this happened, do you remember when that was and how many tabs were opened?
