Resolved How do I open I.E. automatically in new window

If I open a window in I.E. from my favorites and then click on another favorite, it closes the first window. If I open a new tab first than it does not close the first window. How do I set it up so that clicking on the second favorite doesn't close the first window?

 

middle click the bookmark or hold down the ctrl key and left click the bookmark.
Ctrl + left click

 

Middle clicking the favorite does not necessarily open it in a new window, but Ctrl left click does. Is there a way to set I.E. so you don't have to hold down the Ctrl key and the second favorite or link for that matter, will open automatically in a new window?

 

If you click on a favorite in the Start/Orb menu, it will open in a new window.

Don't have favorites there you say. Well worry no more. Go to the Start/Orb and right click and choose Properties. Then in the Start Menu tab, click on Customize then scroll down and put a check in Favorites Menu Click Ok/Apply/Ok

Then you will be able to open up boo koos of them.

 

Yes I do have my favorites in the start/orb menu. Weird, now it seems to be working that way. How about clicking on a link in a web page? How do you set it to automatically open a new window? (Besides using the shift key).

 

Tip: Too many open windows can crash your computer.

 

I think that may be a glitch in IE, when I hit the home button, it opens the 2 home pages without regard to what may be in the next tab.

To get programs to open in a new window, change Internet Options, Tab settings to Open in a New Window, but that won't work if you want a new tab. 8^}

 

I have I.E. tabs set at: New Tab in Current Windows. I will try going through favorites since all three websites I want open at the same time, are in favorites. It just doesn't seem to consistantly open a new tab.

Thank you for your replies.

 

Yes I have that option too. Thanks, I didn't remember that drop down menu.
