A folder shortcut on the Links bar in Internet Explorer does not open in a new window when you click it
When you click a folder shortcut on the Links bar in Microsoft Internet Explorer, the folder opens within Internet Explorer and not in a new window.
The folder opens within Internet Explorer when the folder shortcut cannot be seen on the Links bar, and you must click the double arrow to see the folder shortcut. However, if the folder shortcut is visible, the folder opens in a new window when you click it.
When you click a visible folder shortcut on the Links bar, Internet Explorer uses the Open method. The Open method opens the folder in a new window. When you click a folder shortcut in the shortcut menu for the Links bar, Internet Explorer uses the Navigate method. The Navigate method opens the folder within the current Internet Explorer window.
For more information about the Open and the Navigate methods, visit the following Microsoft Web sites:
- Open method
- Navigate method

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
