I can't manage to get back to my workspace when I launched the preview

Once I'm working on my code, I can't open the preview in a new tab + once I've launched it, I can't go back to my code.

The preview is supposed to open in a new window but sometimes it opens on the current page. I usually get back by clicking "history " and then "back". but it is better to close the browser and launch the workspace again and again until the preview opens in a new window

I'm not sure why your preview isn't opening in a new tab, but I realized that if I was looking at my preview but hadn't answered all of the prompts, my workspace was blank until I answered the prompts. Hope that helps!
