There are settings in the browser which behavior either cannot be changed or that can be changed locally, i.e.: it works one way for me, and another for you.

This is one of these cases.

Short answer: you cannot make sure that the opening of a new URL will override the browser settings or an extension's, no matter what.

But you can in IE because you can force policies that cannot be overridden by users.

Longer answer: play with javascript code on the URL, like here https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView-Deployment/How-to-make-IE-access-point-Doc-open-in-New-Window/td-p/179854

Note that this is not supported, though.
