Ok, first
1. Wherever your shortcut to which ever version of edge your using is, right click it
2. on the next screen that pops up after your right click, right click the name of the edge version you are using.
3. After you right click it, another popup will show with the name "Poperties" on it, click it.
4. on the next screen that pops up make sure your on the "shortcut" tab section at the top of that screen/window. and where it says "target" is where your going to add this "--enable-features=msFavoritesOpenInNewTabSetting" line at the end of what is already there. Do not replace what is there, just add to the end of it without the quotes..
5. Now after you add that line, look at the bottom of that window and you should see the word "apply" click it.
6. After you click "apply" click the word "OK".
Then if you have your edge browser open, close it and restart it. If you don't have it open, then just start your browser and you should be good to go.
After you open your browser you will need to right click on a favorite you want to open and verify that "always open in a new tab" is checked and if it is not click it to place a check ✓on it. After you do that you should then be good to go for all favorites you open there after.....
Hope this helps

I wish that worked for Mac's as well.
