XnView Software

Hi. XnviewMP does seem to be a nice tool but at this point I cant discover how to make into a single image viewer.
let me explain.

When opening in Windows explorer an associated file ie jpg, it loads in xnview. when I press enter shows file explorer in xnview. thats nice. Now have 2 tabs showing an image and the browser. However when I then use the browser to open another different image there is another tab with the other opened file. Each time I press enter it goes back to the browser without closing the image tab. Eventually I have a large number of images open in tabs with the browser. Is there a way to restrict to a single tab and browser?
Thats closer to the working method in my previous image viewer.
I discover on an image open tab pressing esc returns to the browser and does close the image tab but I am so used to pressing enter to return to the browser I keep ending up with all these image tabs open. Just old habits that need beating into shape perhaps?

Is there a menu item to restrict this action? There was in XNView.

Thanks.

Could you please check if changing this setting meets your needs:

Tools > Settings...

long time before reply so apologies.

Yes this does go pretty well to make it familiar as well as the customise keyboard shortcuts.
