      Hi
      When you click on a "Quick Access" Tile in the "Start Page", it opens the requested link in the current tab instead of the "Start Page". This is Normal...
      When you click on a "Quick Access" Tile of the "Start Page" with the "Ctrl" key pressed (or a right click), it opens the requested link in a new tab. This is Normal too and i like this possibility.
      My request :
      Can we reverse by default this process and always open a "Quick Access" Tile in a new tab ? Without pressing nothing more.
      Maybe a link in Quick Access like: https://www.google.fr/ target="_blank" ?
      I've tested it, it doesn't work.
      Do you have a trick for me or should we wait for the developers to offer this option ?
      Thanks for your answer.
      JClaude

                @leocg Hi, no 3 buttons, it's a laptop.
                it's not the subject too...
                I can use right click or Ctrl if i want, but i don't want.

                    it's a laptop

                    Some (or most) laptops have touchpad gestures that emulate mouse the wheel/right buttons pressing.
                    For example tap by 2 fingers emulates the mouse right click button, tap by 3 fingers emulates the mouse wheel pressing. In my case the 2 fingers tap works as a right click, but 3 fingers tap does nothing. It's need to check particular's laptop touchpad settings.

                      @leocg Hi!
                      Yes and thank you, that's what I thought, I hope this option will appear one day !

                      🤣 But I still have trouble understanding why a simple post about a new tab turns into a post for mouse and trackpad user manual.
                      Bye

                        You asked about a trick so you get possible solutions. If you don't need/accept that you can wait official solution from developers (that most probably won't happern soon or won't happen at all).
