Thanks for submitting this issue. Please also check if it is already covered by an existing one, like:

• Opening multiple files at once should add all of them to the MRU list (#54644)
• Close Others on Preview Editor should make it Normal (#73869)
• Pressing Ctrl+W on release notes closes the window (#82670)
• Create workbench.editor.openPositioning pendant for tab groups (#56142)
• Markdown file preview on side, cannot find currently opened but unfocused source tab (#82457)

@czastack I'm having trouble reproducing this issue. Just to confirm, this also happens when all extensions are disabled? Do you have any custom keybindings?

I opened an issue with a similar problem and it was closed as a duplicate, but it added further insight as to how to reproduce this:

Open 3 files. Select the far-right file.
Press cmd+w to close the tab.
Press cmd+w to close the next tab.

Notice the last two open tabs are closes simultaneously. This should only close ONE tab at a time.

This was NOT a bug in the previous version.
This appears to have been introduced in the recent update

Note this happens on ANY tab, NOT only "preview" tabs

[czastack]

@RMacfarlane Yes. Ｗhen I disable all the extentions and move ~/.config/Code into other name, the isuue also happens. Are you trying to reproduce this issue on linux system?

I see this on mac as well. It's erratic, though. Sometimes one tab closes, sometimes two.

In my case, I've never seted any keyboard shortcut.
ctrl +w always close my preivew window and markdown source window
( If source has any monification, pop up save or not question box )
It's very annoying problem.

I can repro this in 1.42.1 in a clean install on linux.

1. Create a file, add some text, save it as .md
2. ctrl+shift+v to preview: this opens a preview tab
3. ctrl+w while the preview tab has focus
4. BOTH the preview tab and the .md source tab are closed

It appears to consume the ctrl+w twice: if tabs are rearranged (i.e. open a second file, and rearrange the tabs such that the second file is in bewteen the .md and the preview), whichever tab would have gotten focus after the preview was closed gets closed as well; if the preview tab is the only one remaining, the second ghost ctrl+w closes the window.

I'm experiencing this issue in the stable version, but not in insiders. Has it been fixed?

It's only happening for images, and not for plain-text files.

FWIW, after the Ctrl+W shortcut for workbench.action.closeWindow is deleted, this nagging issue never appears on my machine.
