Feature: Open archives from the home page in the same tab

[manfromarce]

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Files usually opens supported archives (Zip, 7z, ...) in the same tab even if they are associated with Windows Explorer.
However, opening them from Recents in the home page launches a new Files instance or Windows Explorer.

Requirements

• This proposal will make open supported archives listed in Home in the same tab

Files Version

Version: 2.4.40

Windows Version

Windows 11 22H2 22621.1344
