Hello Dextermonir, is this behavior reproducible on every website or only one? There are 2 cases: - the developer has chosen to give the visitor to open links only in a new window. Then you cannot do anything - there is no "opening restriction" then the link can be opened either in a new tab or new window

Can you check if the appropriate option is checked:

  1. Click on the hamburger menu in the top right
  2. Click on options
  3. Check if the option "Open a new tab instead of a new window" is checked in the "tabs" part

Does it fix?
