I installed the latest version (2.30.1) of Gedit for Windows. And whenever I open files from explorer with gedit, it won't open as tabs in the current instance, instead it opens a new window for each file, like a notepad. I do not like this behavior. Is there any way to configure gedit to open files in the same window as tabs?

Gedit can also be started from the command line, by typing gedit with the name of the file you want to edit. This will open a new Main Window of gedit with the file you typed in the command line. You can also open multiple files in gedit from the command line.
To close a file in gedit, select Close. Alternately, you can click the small "X" that appears on the right-side of the file's tab, or press Ctrl + W . Any one of these actions will close a file in gedit.
To save changes to the current file, choose File->Save or click Save on the toolbar. If the file does not have a filename, gedit displays the Save As dialog. Enter a name for the file in the Save As dialog, then click OK. To save a new file or to save an existing file under a new filename, choose File->Save As.
Installation. gedit is located in Ubuntu's Main repository and is installed by default.
Judging from this askubuntu.org post, this is not only an issue on windows. Making the suggested changes and building gedit for windows might yield some result.
