How to get links to open in a new tab in existing edge browser

Question

Using Microsoft Edge browser. Up until a coupe of days go when I click on a hyperlink in an email or web page, it would open that link in a new tab in my existing open browser. No when I click on a link it opens a whole new browser page. How do I get this to return to opening a new tab instead of a new page/window?
