Avoid Opening the Same Folder in Different Tabs

[linkun]

Hello Total Commander community,

I am a user of Total Commander, and I've been trying to find a solution to avoid opening the same folder in different tabs. I've searched through the configuration options, but I haven't found any settings to enable this feature. I would like to know if there's a built-in option or a plugin that can help me achieve this.

When I open a new tab with the same folder as an existing one, I'd like Total Commander to automatically switch to the existing tab with the same folder open, rather than opening a new tab. This would help me better manage my tabs and reduce confusion.

I appreciate any suggestions or solutions you may have. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Best regards.
