UE5 Editor Default Asset Editor Tabs

Development Pipeline & Plugins Editor Scripting

When I run UE5 in VS Code, on launch it opens set of tabs. This is mostly as expected, as I would like my tabs to be retained. But it also includes a separate ‘Content Browser’ window. I do not want this. I keep on closing the separate window, but every time I relaunch the editor, that same separate ‘Content Browser’ window is open.

How do I prevent this? I can’t find any place in the Editor settings that would touch upon this. I’ve never closed down the Editor with that window open; I prefer 1 window so even for “remembered” tabs, it should be in the main window.

This is still an issue.

Found a workaround for this.

  1. Editor Preferences > Restore Open Asset Tabs on Restart = Always Prompt
  2. Then just always click “Yes” when prompted to restore on re-launch

Also note that the Find in Blueprints window is likewise affected by this issue.
