Dale (and others), I found the location where this setting is. you need to go to "Configure Dolphin" (In my case, I had to add this to the toolbar as I am missing the drop down menu). Then in the "Startup" part, I see "Open new folders in tabs" ticked. If you disable that, you get your folders back in new windows. -- Joost
