I am new to using this tool and I was wondering - how do I get the tool to open the game in a window? If I open the game for the first time it opens in full screen mode.

libTAS should enforce windowed mode for SDL games. It is possible that the window takes the whole screen, in that case you can move it by holding Alt key and dragging the window. Some games don't like enforcing windowed mode and it won't work or looks buggy, in that case you can still launch the game natively and set windowed mode.

Ok. It’s been a while since I played New ‘n’ Tasty on Ubuntu. I will install it on my PC on my second hard drive
