Hi,
I have a rather simple question: Is it possible to undo the closing of a tab in the editor similar to how it would work in a web browser?
Thanks!

Hi Nils,
I have tried "Ctrl+Shift+T" shorcut key in MATLAB R2025a which allows to reopen a recently closed file in the Editor. Repeating the shortcut will continue reopening previously closed files in reverse order.
To view or modify this shortcut, please follow these steps:
  1. Go to the Home tab on the MATLAB Toolstrip.
  2. Click on settings.
  3. Navigate to MATLAB->Keyboard->Shorcuts
Alternative ways to reopen an older file, you can use the Open > Recent Files option:
Go to the Home tabOpen dropdown → Recent File
Hope it helps!
