Hi,
You can achieve that by using the LaunchTarget.New argument :
Launch("bing.com"); Launch("google.com",{}, LaunchTarget.New)

Are you sure? did you try running it as I wrote it? because I just tested it and it worked.

Hi @Dan7Merc ,

Could you please tell me what browser you are using?
I tested on different browsers, the solution provided by @Dant7484 works on Chrome but not on Edge, maybe you could consider using Chrome to test it and try again.

Hi,
I have a page with links for multiple URL's. I want launch function to open them in a separate window. Right now, if I click button 1, it opens the URL in a new window A and if I click button 2, it opens the URL in the same window A.

I want power apps to open the URL in a new window B. Is it possible? Please advise.

This works: Launch("url1");
Launch("url2",{},LaunchTarget.New)

You may need to allow popups from PowerApps, as this was preventing the second window opening.
