Why does hyperlink open from Excel create multiple IE windows?
I have a excel document with SageCRM link (e.g. server/eware.dll/SessionFind?Act=ID&Mode=1&CLk=T&key0=7&key7=ID&Oppo_OpportunityId=ID)
When clicked on this link from excel or word it opens in two IE windows but when I create new link to e.g. google.com it only opens in a single IE window.
So I trough it might be something to do with this (eware.dll/SessionFind?Act=ID&Mode=1&CLk=T&key0=7&key7=ID&Oppo_OpportunityId=ID) so I created new link with just link://server/ but again it open into two IE windows.
When I asked my colleague to do same thing, everything is open in single IE window.
I don't understand why my Excel and Word opening this hyperlink to server in multiple IE windows. How can I resolve this?
- Server: Windows 2008 R2
- PC: Windows 7 Enterprise 64X
- Browser: IE 11
- Office 365 (2013)

This may sound like a silly question, but are you single clicking or double clicking the hyperlink in Excel? I've seen people double click and end up with two windows.

It could be something to do with Windows. Try runningsfc /scannowfrom an elevated command prompt to check system files for integrity issues.

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan
for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.
This article describes how to run the System File Checker tool
(SFC.exe) to scan your system files and to repair missing or corrupted
system files in Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7 or Windows Vista. If
a Windows Resource Protection (WRP) file is missing or is corrupted,
Windows may not behave as expected. For example, some Windows
functions may not work, or Windows may crash.
