How to Always Open Files in a New Tab - VSCode
- a file will stay open once it's been edited
- Double-click your files instead of single-clicking.
- Right click your tab and select "Keep Open"
- Use the ctrl+K then Enter keyboard shortcut.
- Double-click the tab you want to keep open
- If it's an "ephemeral" tab, VS Code will show the file name in an italicized text.
