Multiple new windows opens when I click on any folder in Administrator (user account) folder.

Whenever, I try to open any folder or sub-folder in my Administrator account, it automatically opens new multiple
windows with same folder.
For example, I tried to open a folder in my "Downloads" it automatically opened 2 new windows with same folder contents.
What should I do to open it in the same window?
Is there any way to repair this annoying problem...
Somebody please help!

Hi,
If the above setting
arnavsharma provided is configured properly, please try following things:
Open up Registry Editor, and go to:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-1000\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Delete "Explorer". It will be re-created.
Reboot to see what's going on.

  • New window opens when I click a link

    On some sites, every time I click on one of the links, a new instance of Safari opens. The same site does not do this in IE or Firefox and in latter, you have controls of how links open..new window, new tab, or force open within current window. Anyone know how to keep only one window open in Safari?

    If you want new windows to open in a new tab, instead of a new Safari window, just hold ctrl while clicking on the link. Make sure this option is enabled in Edit->Preferences->Tabs, if it doesn't work for you right off the bat. You can also do what I do, and simply right-click on the link, and select Open Link In New Tab.
    There are some other neat Tab features too, if you have multiple windows open already, you can go to Window->Merge All Windows, and all open pages are moved to Tabs in a single Safari Window.
    Conversely, you can send a Tab to a new, separate window, by going to Window->Move Tab To New Window.

  • I am using Mail for emails and I seem to have two different windows that switch between the two.  The emails are the same but the second window opens when I click on any details and I cannot see the top of my screen with control icons for internet, file

    I am not very tech savy and apologize in advance if my question is not clear.  I use the Mail application on my mac and I have two users on my computer, one for gmail and another for my work email.  All email addresses appear in the mail application on one page.  When I open my email and click on a message it often goes to the other user screen and cuts off the top of my screen which shows the bar for Chrome, file, edit, view, history etc....Still functional but very annoying.  How do I choose a user screen and stop having it switch back and forth. 
    Thank you.

  • Another window opens when i click on something on mac

    another window opens when i click on something on mac

    A window is suppose to open if you click on an app.  You need to clarify exactly what is going on.  Are you saying 2 windows are opening up?  If so, check your speed settings in System Preference>Mouse.
    Since you did not provide any system info (blank system profile) I cannot offer any further suggestions. 
    When posting in Apple Communties/Forums/Message Boards.......It would help us to know which Mac model you have, which OS & version you're using, how much RAM, etc. You can have this info displayed on the bottom of every post by completing your system profile and filling in the information asked for.

  • Tabs opening as new windows even when I click open in a new tab

    All of a sudden links that normally opened as new tabs are now opening as new windows. Even when I specifically say open as a new tab it still opens as a new window. I have checked the settings in the tab option so it should be opening them as new tabs. it is highly frustrating!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

  • Why does firefox opens new window/tab when i click on a link

    if I click any link in Firefox it will open another blank window in addition to the link clicked, blank window opens on top. how do I stop this

    If a website codes its links to open in a new window, you can divert that to a new tab.
    The basic setting for this is here:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Tabs
    The first checkbox: "Open new windows in a new tab instead"
    In some cases, a website uses a script to launch a new window with special features, such as a set height/width, or with one or more toolbars removed. To avoid breaking sites that create dialog boxes this way, Firefox does not normally divert this kind of window to a new tab. However, if you wanted to send these to a tab as well, there is a hidden setting you can change. (See: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1035103#answer-662627])
    If Firefox is sending ALL links to new windows or new tabs, you might have an extension like Tab Mix Plus or Tab Utilities which changes the built-in tab handling features. You would need to explore their settings to get it just the way you want it.

  • In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

    I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

    I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
    Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
    The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
    NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
    When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
    So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

  • Why does a new tab open when I click a page on google?

    When I click on a page in Google after searching it up through there, a new tab opens with the page and the Google tab remains. This does not happen on the Mozilla start page.

    hello, this might be a preference in your google search settings. go to google.com/preferences and disable the option to ''Open search results in a new browser window''.

  • New window opens when dragging image to desktop

    When I drag an image from a browser (say Chrome) onto the desktop, an all new desktop finder window opens. How do I turn this off, I can't seem to find any setting for this. Am I just not seeing it, or is there no setting to turn this off.
    Thanks for any help?

    Control (right) - click on the image and use the
    either of the two Save Image options.  I have all downloads go to a Scan Me folder hence the Save Image to "Scan Me".  That doesn't open another Finder window.

  • I have Google set to show results in a new window. When I click on a results page link Firefox reverts to search results page almost instantly

    I have Google set to show results in a new window, never use Google instant & search filtering off. When I click on a link on the results page Firefox reverts to the search results page almost instantly. I can of course select the desired page (via windows Aero). This happens on several computers, PCs & Laptops.
    Not a major problem but VERY irritating. This seems to have happened from a few update ago ?

  • New tab opens when I click email link, this doesn't happen with IE or Chrome

    I use a specific website for work. When I click a hyperlink on the website that is supposed to generate an email, it also generates a new tab for no reason. This is a waste of time. This also doesn't happen on the same website in IE or Chrome.

    Those are extensions for Firefox. You can access the Firefox Add-ons page using one of these methods:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. On the right, enabled extensions are listed alphabetically, with disabled extensions at the bottom.
    As a general test for problems caused by any extension, the user can try the same pages/functions in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    (Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run)
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Refresh).
    If the problem goes away, usually that points to an extension as the culprit.
    Bear in mind that other aspects of Safe Mode may be more relevant to display glitches (hardware acceleration) or crashes than extensions, but in this case, I'd look at extensions.

  • New window opens when "add to shopping cart" is pressed in MDM

    Hello,
    Running MD 2.0
    When I add items from MDM to a shopping cart, a pop-up window opens with the shopping cart in it.
    I do not want this, I want the shopping cart to be in the same window as the rest.
    I believe this is controlled in Internet Explorer settings, any ideas?

    Hello GAR,
    You can only check "returntarget" value with http log tool like httpWatch. SRM pass it automatically with value "_top" and Catalog side should use it like this.
    <form action="<Hook URL sent by SRM>" target=="<returntarget sent by SRM>"  method="POST">
    My guess is returntarget value is wrong.

  • Why other "windows" open when I click on one

    sence the last update Mac version 10.7.2  , using my mid-2007 2.4 GHz intel core 2 duo   I'm having problems with slowness of mail , not being able to send "forward" mails to others that have pictures,graphics . When I first open mail and it starts looking for mail , this can take about 3 to 4 minutes at times before it gets the mail .
        Another problem is when I open something ~ say a web page , I get the last 2 or 3 pages that I have opened befor this page . Also if I'm opening a picture I worked on , say in photoshop elements or Iphoto it will open the last 2 or 3 photos too , this is starting to bother the heck out of doing normal work  at times and its getting under my skin . Any help would be a start as I'm getting confussed as to why this is happening .

    Thanks

  • Moving tabs from one window to another makes the new window vanish. I have hot corners enabled so when I move up to the right corner of my display I can see all my open windows but when I click on the tab that I moved to make it its own window it vanishes

    Moving tabs from one window to another makes the new window vanish. I have hot corners enabled so when I move up to the right corner of my display I can see all my open windows but when I click on the tab that I moved to make it its own window it vanishes

    I came up with an alternative solution.
    Instead of actually trying to move the JInternalFrame from one JDesktopPane to another, I added a single, maximized JInternalFrame to the left side. When one of the right side frames is to be docked, I merely copy its ContentPane to the single JInternalFrame on the left, set the original to be non-visible, and adjust the properties of the JSplitPane to make the "docked" frame appear.
    When the "close" button on the docked frame is pressed, I simply undo this procedure to "undock" the frame and redisplay it on the right-hand side (with its content intact from the docked frame, but in its original position).
