You probably have preferences set to load images as floating windows rather than tabs.  Check Edit>Preferences and click on Open documents as tabs.  This will dock each new document to the PS window

That shows your zoom ratio.

I believe the OP is asking why does the image come in at such a low zoom ratio.  When I open jpegs in floating windows they are zoomed to the largest "standard" ratio, i.e. 12.5%, 25%, 33%, 50%, 66%, 100%, that will fit the available screen area (and no larger than 100%).  I was not able to duplicate the OP's issue on my W10 system with the latest version of Photoshop CC, didn't find any settings that would bear on the issue.

He, like I, am on a Mac and the zoom ratio of a document opening varies. Not sure why that document of his shows up at 3%.

The taskbar and Search seems to indicate Windows PC to me and my assumption was that docking of documents disabled and the last sized window remains as sticky.  Having said that I cannot actually repeat with CC.
IF this is aberrant behaviour the perhaps trashing Preferences in order?

I only get an 'odd' zoom ratio when set to Print Size in View and it's not sticky. No idea why it would default to that size but not a bad idea to delete preferences.

Try trashing your Photoshop preferences. Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) immediately after launching Photoshop. You will be prompted to delete the current settings. Can't hurt.
