I get a new tab everytime I click on a link, which is a pain as closing the link is not working well.

Hi I've found how to solve this issue
the problem is from Bing (the search engine) not Edge (Browser)
Tried this method and it didn't work. I restarted both the PC and browser to ensure I was clearing active tasks/settings.
I did check the Internet Options setting, and it still reflected the "Open links from other programs in: The current tab or window" was still active.

every time I try to change this setting and hit save, the page refreshes and the options are changed back to open new tab turned on. Is my organization preventing me from making this change? if so, how can I get it to stick permanently?
fix the ***** browser! and maybe people will start to use it!! if we want to open stuff in new tab we'd middle click with scroll wheel!!!!! get the basic functionality right before adding a ton of features.
Thank you
This works if you're doing a search for other sites within the same tab. If you click on a link, it will open on the same tab. But if I click on a link from my Collections, it opens a new tab for every link I click in the Collection. However, my work computer still opens the Collection link in the same tab I'm in. I wonder how they set it up there.
