Default Opening Excel

Every time I have an Excel file open and I try to open another file, the new
file shows up and covers the view of the one I already have open. Put
differently, the new file does not come up in a different tab. I need to be
able to tab between the two files as I work on them.
Any tips to fix this?

Thanks.

Default Opening Excel

Maybe ToolsOptionsView....Windows in Taskbar

You can Tab between them anyway using CTRL + F6
