How to open up a folder in a new XYplorer tab SOLVED

Supposing I have two XYplorer tabs open, but the program is minimized to my taskbar. I go to my desktop in Windows 11, and click on a folder there. What I expect XYplorer to do, is open up the XYplorer window with the folder that I clicked on, opened up in a new tab. What happens, is that a previously opened tab is now shifted to whatever folder I clicked on.

I looked through the Tab section of the configuration dialog, but didn't see how to get XYplorer to do what I want. I"m pretty sure earlier, it was doing it the way I want it. I just installed 28.

This one looks promising: Configuration | General | Startup & Exit | Open command line start path in new tab
