Allowing single/multiple instance(s) of XYp

Hi all,

IT would be nice to have a togglable option, which, when checked would only allow one instance of XYp running, and one or more if unchecked...

One thing to be careful of with this wish is that XY is a single pane explorer - if you want to drag-n-drop files from one place to another with XY it's sometimes easiest to have 2 instances open.

There have been several discussions about XY having a dual pane option (or not) - it's currently in the Roadmap, but I'm not sure what the timeframe might be.

I just suggested it as being a togglable option, so you check it or not ...

I have this switch in the "target" of my XY shortcut and it always stays single instance:

"C:\Program Files\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe" "C:\"

Thanks to Jacky for including this in the wiki.
