PyCharm opens many editor tabs at start
Every time I start PyCharm, the application opens many editor tabs. I have to close them manually each time. When I close PyCharm, no tabs are open.
It's very annoying, especially because the same thing happens every time I open a new GitHub Copilot chat.
I use PyCharm 2025.2.3 and GitHub Copilot plugin 1.5.57-243

Mfaron, This behavior may be caused by the GitHub Copilot plugin opening editor tabs automatically. Unfortunately, the Copilot plugin is a third-party integration and is outside the scope of PyCharm support.
Please try to disable all non-bundled plugins (File | Settings | Plugins | ⚙ | Disable all downloaded plugins) and check whether the issue persist. If it does, you can create an issue on YouTrack (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/PY) and attach all relevant information for quicker resolution.
