How do I stop Bing from opening in a new tab?

Open Microsoft Edge on your Windows, Mac, or Linux PC and go to Bing., and com. Click the hamburger menu icon in the top-right corner. Select “Safe Search” from the menu. Scroll down to the “Results” section and uncheck both “Open links from search results in a new tab or window” and “ Open links from news results in a new tab or window. ”.

Interestingly enough, now when you check Bing’s settings in Firefox, if Safe . Search is off, the option to open results in new tabs is not selectable and there’s a note that reads, “Unavailable when Safe. Search is turned off”. (See screenshot.) Edge does not (yet) make this differentiation.

Another frequent query is “How do I Turn Off Bing’s “open links from search results?”.

One thought is that scroll down to the “Results” section and uncheck both “Open links from search results in a new tab or window ” and “Open links from news results in a new tab or window.” That’s all there is to it, surprisingly. This is a very weird and frustrating “feature” that is clearly designed to keep Bing open as much as possible.
