Opening A Link In A New Tab
If I go into Google and tap in what I'm looking for, and once a list of suggestions comes up, I can keep all of the Google suggestions if I right click, then select 'open link in a new tab.' However, you have to REMEMBER to right click
Once upon a time, I had that alternative as a default setting, i.e., I could left click on a Google suggestion, and the suggestion would come up in a new tab, leaving the Google page intact.
One day, I downloaded something, and the dreaded question came up, which goes something like: "Installing this item will make changes to your computer. Do you wish to continue?"
Do you know the one I mean? So I crossed my fingers and installed
Since then, I've always had to right click in order to 'open links in a new tab.' That computer has since broken down and I'm temporarily using a Windows XP, but that problem still remains
Soooooo, after such a long preamble, Can I change my computer settings so that I can left click on a Google suggestion and open it up in a new tab, without losing the Google suggestions?

The simplest way is to use the mouse wheel - if your mouse has one. Just press down (click) while the pointer is on the link and it opens the link in a new tab.

Hopefully not; I can't stand it! (It's Firefox for me).

I've never had a problem with right-clicking and using 'open in new tab' anyway. Indeed that's what I do for almost every link I encounter, not just when multiple options are available (as in a Google results page).

That's an ideal way to install Adware/Malware, just back out and say No!
Firefox for me as well. Google already has info about your searches etc and using their browser gives them even more info.
