In your browser preferences, make sure "reopen last session" is turned off. Adjust settings: Edit – Or use a virus scanner like MalwareBytes to check for potential triggers.

These are the tabs that appear when they open by themselves.

Possible issue might be a broken F1 key or a running macro that keeps activating it. It seems similar to the one that opens when you press F1 on the Windows desktop. Consider running scans just in case.
