IE11 restricted users opens links in new window instead new tab

Hello,
Have a problem. All restricted users, on several machines when try to open link in new tab, link opens in new window instead new tab. Pressing ctrl+K or ctrl+T works fine. Resetting browser setting didn't help. Red cross near resetting user customizations.
Administrators don't have this problem. OS: Windows 7 x64 + IE 11. Machine belongs to workgroup. All available updates are installed. Is there any decision?
Thanks

Hi,
This might be related with the UAC settings. See
this thread.
How are the restriction of the users configured here?
Best regards

Links open in new windows instead of tabs.

When browsing the internet, if I'm using a browsing session from a previous day, when I select to open a new link as a new tab, it will open in a new window instead.
In my case, I put my work computer to sleep yesterday evening and started using it again this morning. Now all my links try to open in a new window even if I specifically choose to "Open Link in New Tab".
This is extremely annoying.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Searches pop up in new window instead of tabs now

In the last couple weeks, if I do a search on my homepage MSN, the results show up in a new window instead of a tab like they used to. It doesn't happen with any other page, ie Google, Yahoo, AOL, etc. I contacted MSN and they say it is a Firefox issue.
I checked in my options and I have the option set to open new windows in tabs instead but it still keeps happening. It wasn't doing this a couple weeks ago when it didn't before.

Open links in same window, not new

Help greatly appreciated!
My links open in a new window, but I need them to open in the
same window.
What do I need to add to my code so that this happens.
Here is my code-
stop();
var arrLinks:Array = new Array();
arrLinks[1] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027141/category.cgi';
arrLinks[2] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027139/Harlequin-Historical.html';
arrLinks[3] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027129/Silhouette-Desire.html';
arrLinks[4] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027136/Silhouette-Nocturne.html';
arrLinks[5] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027121/Harlequin-Intrigue.html';
arrLinks[6] = '
http://www.diesel-ebooks.com/cgi-bin/category/FIC027123/Harlequin-Blaze.html';
var pc = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
pc =
Math.floor((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100);
if (pc == 100 && !isNAN(pc)) {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
_root.play();
The project this code refers to is here-

Thank you so much in advance.

Where is your getURL action?
have you tried _parent or _self as it's target?

Project sporadically opens in a new window, instead of tab

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I have not been able to find this issue on the Internet or on this forum. I apologize in advance if it has been resolved.
I always browse and open often my projects from my desktop.
When I had Captivate 6.0, it would open a window and then, for each project, it would open a tab.
After the upgrade to Captivate 8, whenever I open a project, Captivate will always open in a separate/new window for each project !!!
Is there a way to tell Captivate to ALWAYS OPEN NEW PROJECT in current window, but different tab?
I tried opening a project from the menu bar (File > Open > Select project), and it still opens in a new window.
Thank you for your time.
Eric

Hi Eric
Actually, I'm rather surprised to hear that any version of Captivate would simply open the second or subsequent projects in the same instance but in different tabs. New windows are what I would fully expect if opening projects by simply double-clicking them from the desktop.
I never advise folks to operate that way. My personal view is to open them by opening Captivate first, then using the File > Open (or Ctrl+O as Lilybiri uses).
If you feel it should operate differently, please consider filing a bug report using the link below.

Why is firefox opening new window instead of tabs?

Until today when I clicked on a link it would open a new tab. For some reason when I click on a link now it opens a new window. I'm not sure why. I check my options and it's set up to open tabs. Yesterday it was opening in tabs. I just don't know what's going on, hope you can help.

Firefox opens new windows instead of tabs on my mac laptop not on my PC

Firefox 3.6.8 opens multiple windows instead of new tabs no matter how I select the options in preferences. This happens on my Macbook Pro but not on my Windows PC.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
You can also try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.

Forefox won't open links in a new tab, they open in a new window instead.

I just updated to the newest version of Firefox (says 3.6.11 in "About Firefox"). Links now open in new windows instead of tabs in the same browser window. My settings are set to do this but it doesn't work.
Someone said the AskToolbar extension was the problem, but I went to Tools-->Add-Ons and saw that I didn't have that extension. Anybody know whassap? Thanks!!

Did you check if another extension is causing it?

If i open a new window instead of a new tab, in the new window does not appear the menu tab

i want to open new windows instead of tabs and in the new window should appear the menu tab and scrolling up and down, but now with the new version the menu tab does not appear and i cannot scroll up and down.

Do you mean opening a window via the File menu (File > New Window) or do you always want to open links that you click on web pages in a new window?

When I open a link in a website it opens as a new window instead of just staying on the same page

In any website, when I click on a link it opens in a new window.this even occurs in google when I click any of the results it opens in a new window instead of just staying on the same page.tabs work fine however, it is just links on websites.

Did you check the search settings on the Google Search Settings page?
* http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en
''Where results open: Open search results in a new browser window.''
You can set the browser.link.open_newwindow pref to 1 to open links by default in the current tab.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow (3)
You can set this pref to 0 (zero) to do this for all widows opened via JavaScript.

For some reason if I click a link that needs to open in a new window, the new window is blank. This just started happening when firefox updated itself last time

Ever since firefox automatically updated itself, I am not able to open websites in new windows - meaning that if I am on a website and you click a link on it that opens in a new window, that new window is blank. It used to work perfectly. I even checked my foxit reader and that it working well

Hello Angelika.
I should bring your attention to the fact that your user agent says you're using Firefox 3.6, not 3.0. I will remind you that Firefox 3.0 has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems.
As for your problem, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

When a web page opens a link in a new window, the new page/window is always blank and all i can do is click on the x in the top right corner to get rid of the page

everytime i click on a link on a webpage that is supposed to open in a new window, the new window is always just a blank white window/page

Is there a way for me to determine where on my desktop the new web pages open when I click on links?
Not sure if that can be done but you can press the Expose key which will show all open windows.

FF opening link in new window instead of new tab

When I click the option to open a link in a new tab, it opens the link in a new window instead. What's up with that?

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem. 
Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

Safari keeps opening links in new window instead of current

Hi
I have an iMac, everytime I click on a web link in Safari it opens it in a new window instead of the current window. So after a few minutes internet browsing I have loads & loads of windows open!!!
I have the Safari preferences set to open in 'Same Page', but no joy.
Can you help?
Thanks

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
The Safari Preference Tab panel pertains in part to opening links from outside of Safari, e.g. Mail, or for using a command key to create a new tab. Within Safari, if a link is coded to open another window, it will do just that unless a command key is used, regardless of what's selected in the Tab panel.
With that said, for complete control over tabs, install 3rd party add-on Glims. Once installed, you'll find Glims' preferences as a separate panel within Safari Preferences (you may have to click on the directional arrows at the end of the Preference Panels to access it). In the Tabs misc panel, select "open link in a new tab". That will accomplish what you want, i.e. opening a new tab when a link within Safari is coded to open a new window.
You'll also find a number of very useful features in the other Glims sub-preference panel enhancing Safari usefulness.

How do I stop firefox from opening every link I click on in a new window instead of loading it in that window?

Whenever I click a link to bring me to a game or maybe a different website, it opens it into a new window which keeps certain things from working.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I clicked "open in a new window" on a tab so i could have two windows

Hello,
In safe mode link still open in new tabs?
*[http://mzl.la/MwuO4X Firefox in safe mode]
Go to '''about:config''' and search for:
*'''browser.tabs.loadInBackground''' change its value to '''false'''.
If in safe mode the links still open in new tabs try go to '''about:config''' and search for:
*'''browser.link.open_newwindow''' change its value to '''3'''.
