How can I force a process to never start more than once (only one instance) ?
Eóin:
- this makes me ask if Explorer is meant to run twice - the first one at startup, for the taskbar etcetera, and (later) the second one, for my folders (when I open them)??

That could happen if the "Launch folder windows in a separate process" option is checked under "Folder Options >> View"
Armando:
Havent tried this Armando but it also sounds like what you looking for
Skrommel's SingleInstance
Allow only one instance of a program to run.
Features:
- User defined programs.
- Option to detect hidden programs.
- Won't close instances started before SingleInstance.
