Cypress opening full screen view in wrong Chrome Window

[UglyHobbitFeet]

Current behavior

I have a Chrome Window running with x number of tabs (Ex: google, stackoverflow, etc). I will refer to this below as my OLD Chrome Window

I run the following command in a terminal: cypress: open

It brings up a cypress app that allows me to choose a browser. I choose Chrome (via 'Select E2E testing in Chrome' button)

Cypress then opens a NEW Chrome Window

I then click on the 'Specs' tab and execute my tests. The right-side of the screen shows an embedded browser with URL at top.

If I click on the URL in the embedded browser, cypress opens the embedded browser content in my OLD Chrome Window. My OLD Chrome window does not have the test content/context (aka loaded json files, etc) and is useless to me. I cannot get the URL to open in the NEW Chrome window that Cypress spawned when I clicked the 'Select E2E testing in Chrome' button.

This used to work fine (opened in the NEW Chrome Browser) from Cypress v12.17.4 up until v13.3.0 testing with v13.4.0 it still worked but took exponentially longer to load the tab with the data (minutes vs seconds) testing with v13.5.0 it opened in the NEW browser as expected but with no data (didn't load fixtures etc) testing with v13.6.1 it opened in the OLD browser and with no data

FWIW I have Chrome v120

Desired behavior

That the behavior I saw in v12.17.4/v13.3.0 would still exist in v13.6.1 where opening the embedded browser URL would launch the tab in the cypress spawned Chrome window instead of my own personal Chrome tab window
