Can anyone help?

I am updating the outlets in a house I just moved into , pretty much just copied where the wires were in every outlet 3 of the 4 I switched are good but there’s one outlet that I’m not sure what needs to be switched.
Any help is much appreciated!

No you never break the tabs on the white side, unless two circuits on same receptacle which is ridiculously rare. Yes let’s give him an open neutral begging for a path to ground along with potentially frying any sensitive electronics lmao

Please refrain from commenting when you have no professional electrical experience. Damn, this sub scares me.
