Command-line option starts a new instance of SC

<< < (3/3)

lanux128:
by any chance, does SC have any option like the one in the image below, which i may have inadvertently turned it off/on?

Spoiler

With SC already running and using the run command I get the "Hello there! You've tried to launch a new copy..." popup. I got a UAC popup 1st asking if I wanted it to run.

I'm on Win 7 Pro, x64 machine. SC is installed in the x86 program files folder.

Edit
Should have told you I'm still running V4.8. Haven't installed the beta yet.

thanks bob -- so your single-instance detection is working correctly.
ps. the new beta does away with that "hello there" message.

Just tried it again. Same result. Single instance popup.

There's probably some other reason you are taking out the "Hello there" message. But it never bothered me. Actually I kind of liked the reminder I had it already running. Sometimes some of my tray icons disappear for seemingly no reason. In my case it kept me from having two instances running.
