Selenium driver.WindowHandles return just one handle ignoring tabs on Firefox.
Cant navigate between multiple tabs.
See code below.
I had this problem and the response solved it, but my question wasnt precise, then im asking again.
The response helped me but now im stuck on the problem of this question, a problem that another person had too here but without answers.
There is another having it even with separate window but in chrome here.

public static void testab()

elmTxt.SendKeys("google" + Keys.Enter);
