yesterday i was just updating my firefox with some add-ons, but after some updates i didn't get my new tab option when a new window of firefox is opened with just 1 tab running. i had to hit "Ctrl+T" rather the new tab botton, but as the number of tabs goes to >2 then this button appears as it appears normaly.

I think an option might have gotten turned off. Try here:

orange Firefox button or Tools menu > Options > Tab

Check the box for "Always show the tab bar"

Does that fix it?

i got it fixed by myself. i went to about:config and changed some settings related to "tab".
