Is it possible to have only one instance of Q-Dir (tab, open, explorer )?

If Quad-Directory-Explorer is already open and a program wants to open a folder, I want it to open a tab rather than have another Q-Dir window.

Please activate this option, via menu, extras Q-Dir as default browser, Open in New Tab, in the running instance (... see Image-1 Arrow-1)

Please always use ►.... the newest and latest version of File Explorer Q-Dir ◄

My question is not there in the FAQ

Asked questions on this answer:

I set Q-Dir as the default file manager and it opens up another Q-dir window whenever i double click a folder, the one i tested the folders are on the desktop. It would be nice to force Q-dir to have only one instance since it has tabs already. An option to set this would be ideal so other users would have an option.
