Using ctrl+shift+t to open tabs closed as individual windows, opens them but they are not visible.

Hi. Using ctrl+shift+t to open closed tabs generally works, but when I try to do with with a tab that is alone, in a separate window, it will "reopen" in a way that doesn't make it visible to me. It is visible in the task manager, but not as a window... For example, if I open a YouTube video in a secondary window, with a single tab, and I close it, using ctrl+shift+t will visibly do nothing, but the video's audio starts being audible, with no way to close it other than the task manager.

I've had this issue for a few months now, even though I keep Edge updated. I tried using the repair feature but it didn't help.

    It is known issue and current dev version 111.0.1660.12 (111.0.1652.0 also) seems not have this issue.
    BTW, it occurs when msHistoryOpenInNewTab feature enabled. So adding "--disable-features=msHistoryOpenInNewTab" command-line option can be taken if it is acceptable.

      atlanto In my case, when I press ctrl+shift+t, it jumps to the first open tab.
