favorite folder opens in new tab if using different hotkey

Hello

I noticed a strange behavior when opening favorite folders with hotkeys. I dont use favorite tools so I'm using CTRL+1, CTRL+2 etc hotkeys to open the folders, unmapping them from the favorite tools.

But this causes the favorite folders to open in a new tab which is not what I'm expecting - why a new tab ?

Using Alt-up and then selecting a favorite opens in the current tab.
Using Alt-up and CTRL-click a favorite opens in a new tab.

Remapping the favorite hotkeys to default (Ctrl+Shift+1..) opens in the current tab.

Am I missing something ?

Reproduced with vanilla settings on FreeCommander XE 2021 Build 845 64-bit donor on Win10 20H2

It doesn't do this for me.
Try at least the actual version 8.53

If the CTRL key is pressed (without SHIFT) - always is new Tab used.
