How to open multiple Word file tabs on one interface
The feature of opening multiple tabs on the same interface is the default feature of the browsers and later has been provided as a main feature on Windows 10, through the Sets feature, which combines tabs on one window. Putting applications on each tab open in the same interface saves working time, when not having to open or close tabs much. However, the feature of opening multiple tabs is not provided for Microsoft Office, so sometimes users working with multiple Word or Excel files will be confused by opening multiple document tabs at the same time.
If you want to bring the feature of opening multiple tabs to the same interface, you can use the Office Tab tool. This is a separate tool supporting the Microsoft office toolkit, allowing users to open multiple tabs on the same window interface, instead of opening multiple document file tabs as before. If you want to work on any document, just click on that tab. Posts done in Word, the other tools we do the same.
