Make links open in the same tab for specific webpages.

Open Same Tab - Add-on for Edge

Open Same Tab is an Edge add-on that allows you to make links open in the same tab for specific webpages. It is designed to counter search engines' strategy of keeping users on their search results page by forcing each search result to open in a new tab. With Open Same Tab, you can easily click the toolbar icon on a search results page to remember the domain and make links open in the same page. To remove the domain, simply visit the page and click the toolbar icon again.

Very simple, easy to use. It just works.

It does not work, or you instructions are unclear.

The only extension I've found that actually manages to force the office webapp to open documents inside the app window. L'unica che ho trovato che blocca la web app di office online da aprire i documenti nel browser. I documenti si aprono nella finestra della web app.
