Always starts new window.

My home page is on the local drive and has all my favorites on it. When I
click on a link, it always opens a new window, unnecessarily.
Is there an option to make a new page open in the current tab, current
window ,unless specifically requested?

| Internet Options | Advanced.
Check "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".

Configuration details? Are you using nVidia utilities?

Re: Always starts new window.

Thanks, but that is already ticked.
It seems to be because my home page is on my C: drive and so probably "Local
Internet" or "Trusted" and the page I want to load is on "Internet".
