I'm not sure if there's another setting I need to change, but the "Open In" field for all my favorites is not working.
I've set all of my favorites to Open In: New Tab (or Tabs for Active/Inactive double favorites), but none of them do- they all open in the existing tab(s).
As I'm typing this the only thing I can think of is that I've been migrating my FreeCommander settings for a while from job to job, PC to PC- so I suppose it's conceivable that my favorites predate the introduction of the Open In field.
Or, I'm Just Doing It Wrong, which is usually par for the course.
Thanks!

Re: Favorites "Open In" Behavior Question
It appears that this option currently only works via the tree view.

Re: Favorites "Open In" Behavior Question
Ok, that's good to know re the tree- I always have 2 sets of tabs and 2 folder trees showing so I never tried that; and I have to kinda contort my hand weird to input Ctrl-click, so I hadn't tried that one either - but that's great!
Thanks for that!
