Forgive me for asking this question, as I've used Total Finder for this function but am trying to use Apple's Finder.

Let's say I have a Finder window open showing my Mac HD. When I click on the icon for my external drive, Finder opens another window instead of opening a new tab in the existing window. I have the "open folders in tabs instead of new windows" selected. Is there any way to make a new tab open by default? Seems like this feature doesn't work very well even though it's offered. I'm running 10.11 GM btw. Thanks!
