Hello.

I am using Microsoft Edge (Bing) and recently, websites have started opening in a new tab. I want to disable this feature, in other words, stay on the same tab when I click on a site. I looked in the settings and options, but I can't find this function.

Can you help me? What should I do in this situation?

    Hello,

    1- This darn search engine Bing opens links in a new tab, same with a new tab.
    Some will say it's good, others won't.

    If you want your sites to open in the current page, you need to modify the search engine and set, for example, the search engine Google.
    The option is well hidden in the Edge (Chromium) settings.

    The procedure:
    Open Edge, go to the small vertical dots located at the top right.
    Click on the line --►Settings
    In the left menu, click on the line --►Privacy, search and services

    Scroll all the way down the page to the section -►Services
    Click on the line -►Address bar and search


    Next to the line -►Search engine used in the address bar
    Select -► Google (default)


    Imperative:
    Close Edge and restart it to apply the modification.

    Another quicker way:
    Clear everything in the address bar and copy/paste ==► edge://settings/search
    Then press Enter on your keyboard.

    2- Work around the Bing search engine when opening a link in a new tab or on this post

    3- uBlock ad blocker
    It will give you fewer ads on sites.
    Don't forget to allow extensions if you don't have the request in the form of a dialogue box.
    Clear everything in the Edge address bar and copy/paste ==► edge://extensions/
    At the bottom left, highlight the line ==► Allow extensions from other stores

    Also add the extension ==► I don’t care about cookies


    A+
