When you use Shift and click on a folder it opens in a new tab. Great !

However, most broswers use Ctrl/Cmd and click, for the open in a new tab function.
So naturally, as a website designer, that it hidden somehwere in my subconscious and I just cannot forget it.

Could we have an option please to choose which modifier key to use when clicking a folder to open it in a new tab.
A drop down list of each modifier key combination would be prefect.

:tup: (though after some time I've just changed my reflex to hit Ctrl+Click in order to hit Shift+Click)

It would be more consistent with Windows Explorer as well, where Ctrl+Enter opens the selected folder in a new window, while Shift+Enter does the same as Enter.

If this is changed, the shortcut Shift+Enter from the address bar should be changed in Ctrl+Enter as well.

Understandable wish but impossible to realize. SHIFT = New Tab is woven into the genetic nucleus of XYplorer for many many years. Cannot be changed anymore.
