Default Pro Tools tabbed windows in MacOs - Windows configuration not working

Hi there,

I don't know since when, but my Pro Tools (2018.3 on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6) has defaulted to the native "tabbed" windows of MacOS. So when I create a new session, when I hit cmd-=, it brings me the mix window in a second tab in the same window.

When I "un-tab" the window to put it in my second monitor, the other window has GUI elements all around the place, I have to move the window around to refresh the display.

When I re-open a session, the windows re-open in different tabs in one window. I have to re-size everytime I open a session.

I tried using Window Configurations, it doesn't work. Every time I recall one such configuration, all the windows open as tabs in one window...

Is there any way to de-activate tabbed windows? I hate it!!!

Thanks

System Preferences>Dock>"Prefer tabs when opening documents" setting

It's an Apple thing/problem
