When I right clicked on recycle bin and choose open, it use to open in it's own file explorer window, but now it opens in a different tab within the same file explorer as my other drives and folders. How do I get it to open in its own file explorer window like before?

      Restart File Explorer:
      * Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc).
      * Locate "Windows Explorer" in the Processes tab.
      * Right-click on it and select "Restart."
      2. Reset Recycle Bin Settings:
      * Right-click on the Recycle Bin icon on your desktop.
      * Select "Properties."
      * Under the "Recycle Bin location" section, select the drive you're experiencing the issue with.
      * Click the "Custom size" radio button.
      * Set a smaller value than the current one.
      * Click "Apply" and "OK.".

      Also, could it be any 3rd party software interfering? If you think so, disable the apps. I got this info from Google Gemini, good luck.
