January 2022 release of report server blocks opening report in new tab

[motoray]

Has anyone else noticed the Jan. 2022 version of report server blocking opening reports in a new tab? Used to be able to Ctrl + Click or right click and do it. Now both actions are explicitly blocked. What's the reasoning behind this? Even the PBI Service lets me open a report in a new tab...

Hi @motoray ,

I suspect this is not a problem with the report server version update. I did the same test on an older version and it still shows the same results. Were you able to reproduce again the steps that opened successfully before?

Looking forward to your feedback.

Yes--after posting, I realized the blocking thing was not new. It's the Ctrl + click behavior. On my May 2021 Report Server, a Ctrl + Click opens a report in a new tab. The Jan 2022 version just opens the report in the current tab/window.

Hi @motoray ,

According to your description, is the problem you are describing the kind of situation that the following screenshot responds to?

Looking forward to your feedback.

Yes. After posting, I found the same behavior on a previous version of report server. However, with the new version, I still can't do a Ctrl+Click to open a new tab. No matter what I do or try, the reports only open in the active tab and that's new behavior.
