kodestiff:
When I click something.cpp I usually get the "Another program instance is already running" Dialog.  How about having the file opened in a new tab of that instance?  It would save some time...

Thank you for making this great tool free.

kodestiff:
Sorry, just to clear that:  I meant double click the icon from windows explorer

Jenna:
"Settings -> Environment -> General settings" :
uncheck "Allow only one running instance ..."
check "Use an already running instance ..."
check "Bring it on top afterwards"

kodestiff:
Thank you, Jens

If you would have some more patience with what could seem rediculously stupid.

Too old version (8.02 ?), in a more recent version (nightly), you have these options.
It should work if you ignore it and uncheck "Allow only one running instance ..."  in your case.
