  • Hold Ctrl and left-click or middle-click the Reload button on the location/address bar to open the current page in a new tab.
  • Hold Ctrl and left-click or middle-click items in the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons to open a page from that list in a new tab
    You can hold down the left mouse button on the Back or Forward button to open the tab history.
  • Duplicate a tab with its history by pressing the Ctrl key (Mac: Option) and dragging the tab to a new position on the tab bar.
