Right Click - Open in New Tab

Hi, this functionality: Right Click - Open in New Tab, does not exist in IE
7 yet. Please add it as a Windows update, either optional or whatever.
Until you do, people will not be using Tabs very much because it's cumbersome
to do so while surfing.

I've noticed some serious CPU pin problems when having multiple IE 7 windows
open, that does not happen in Firefox on the same websites with multiple
windows open or in Tabs mode. I can't tell why it's happening, not having a
debugger at hand, but my wild guess would be that IE 7 expects me to use
Tabs, but I'm not because it's inconvenient.

That's strange...right-click > 'Open in New Tab' works fine on my copy
of IE 7.

But how does IE 7 affect the pins on a CPU? Does it bend them? Break them?

Wait...this is all a joke, right? You're just yanking our chains, you
funny guy.

Wonder why he's concerned about "Open in New Tab" not working when it sounds
like he doesn't want to use them anywah.
Dollars to donuts he's using IE6 :-)

<ahem> If Tabbed Browsing isn't enabled, why would you expect to have a
right-click option to open a windows in a new tab?

Yes it does. Are you using the Google Toolbar? That is known to break the
open in new tab function.

I just reinstalled IE7, due to a hard drive crash, and even with tabbed
browsing checked I don't have it when I right click a link. I used to have
that function but now it is gone. Any help would be greatly received.

What if you go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools |
Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

It's always best to begin a new thread to avoid confusion.

That being said and assuming WinXP SP2:

1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start
IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

• Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without
Add-ons; or

• Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet
Explorer (No add-ons).

Troubleshooting and Internet Explorer’s (No Add-ons) Mode:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/07/25/678113.aspx

2. Does the behavior persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 <= Read before using!

3. If you uninstall (a) IE7 *exactly* per the link below (which
automatically returns you to IE6), (b) all toolbars and (c) all third-party
Windows Themes (including Window Blinds) and do NOT reinstall IE7, does this
behavior persist?

NB: If it does, do NOT reinstall IE7.

Uninstalling IE7
http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html
[Only use the Command %windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe if you cannot
uninstall via Add/Remove Programs! It's safe to ignore any "such and such
may not work" warnings. Ignore any references to Vista on the webpage.]

Also see:

IE7 (Un)Installation and Anti-Malware Applications:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/200...lications.aspx

4. Assuming IE6 does not have these problems (other than opening a link in a
new tab, which will not be available), the follow is required reading IMHO
before reinstalling IE7:

Sandi's Installation Tips <= Steps #1-8, #10 & #11; take note of #12, then
STOP
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install [Again, ignore any
references to Vista]

I strongly recommend using
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/dow.../getitnow.mspx as the
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

Or use this Download link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...0-081805b2f90b
(Tip: Save the installer to your desktop, do not Run it.)

5a. Do Methods #1 and/or #2 here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144
(trust me!)

5b. Now make *certain* that you check in at Windows Update immediately after
reinstalling IE7 to install any critical updates offered. If Optional
Software Updates category offers Root Certificates update, opt to install it
to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.

Running WinXP SP3. After downloading and reinstalling IE7 tabbed browsing works. No Google toolbar installed. Problem seems to have been me letting update do the install instead of doing it myself.
