There is no "web features' button. Options window has many tabs. You should have given us a clear direction.

You must have a different version of Firefox from mine.
Here's the steps I find on Firefox support: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pop-blocker-settings-exceptions-troubleshooting?esab=a&s=pop-up+blocker&r=0&as=s

Hope it fits your version
