is it possible to use many CB instances ?

(1/6) > >>

Elena:
I would like to have several projects each one opened in a separate instance of CB.
To do that I thought that I had to disable both general options
Allow only one running instance...
And
Use an already running instance
Unfortunately even having both options disabled, if I open a .cbp it gets opened inside an already running instance which causes a mess and shouldn't even be allowed imho.
What to do? Thx

oBFusCATed:
Open a second instance and then file -> open -> your project
Modify your file associations command to use the --no-ipc option (use --help or /help to check which is the correct spelling for your OS).

Elena:
Sorry I forgot to specify that I am on Windows. I am opening my projects by double click on them, not by first launching CB and then opening the project. And when I double click on a project file in Windows and CB is already running, the new project is opened in the already running instance which is what I want to avoid...

(I don't know how to do that...)
