Windows 10: How do you substitute "open in new window" with "open in new tab" by default?

Working in Windows 11 with the default settings, double-clicking around in the current Windows Explorer window will keep opening whichever folder you choose in the current window, which is totally fine. Interacting with other programs such as a web browser, and choosing to open the containing folder of your recent download, will open a new instance of Windows Explorer. The same goes when extracting an archive file *.zip, *.rar, whatever, and similar actions outside of the WinExpl file browser itself.Is there a way to replace the default "open-in-new-window"-behaviour in these particular case

"Open link in new tab" opens a new tab but also replaces the page I was on

Hi Bob,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are facing issues with Internet Explorer. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.

To assist you better, please provide the information:

• When you say that "Whenever I click open link in new tab", are you referring of opening link in the new tab or clicking on link in a particular page to open in new tab?
• When you say that "the link opens in a new tab but also in the page I'm on", is the link opens in the new tab near to the open websites?

I suggest you to send the screenshot of the issue in the next post.

Unable to open multiple Firefox windows after first successful opening!

I think you can force new windows to open in a tab instead, it's somewhere in the options.

But if the new window is not even opening in a new tab, then not sure what the problem is.
