Hi Team,
scenario:
in the same device, multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously, e.g.: chrome.lnk, chrome 2nd.lnk, the difference? only with different user profile data, which making this behavior meaningful;
Version: 1.4.1.1015 (x64) is ok to do it;
while Version: 1.5.0.1300a (x64) is NOT ok to do it;
question:
why the difference here?
expectation:
since nowadays it's the 1.5 version as the trending version, 1.5 is ok to do this task;
Thanks for the consideration & possible fulfilment.
multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously
Re: multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously
When you say "simultaneously", do you mean that you are highlighting "chrome1" & "chrome2" & then (context-menu) Open?
Or do you mean that you want chrome1 to open with chrome1 profile, & chrome2 to open with chrome2 profile?
(I take it the latter.)
That being the case, the only thing I can figure that might be interfering (in that you are actually opening a profile that is different from both chrome1 & chrome2; i.e. "chrome-admin") is that you are running 1.5 "as Administrator"?
What does happen in 1.5 when you open chrome1 & chrome2, what profiles get opened?
Or do you mean that you want chrome1 to open with chrome1 profile, & chrome2 to open with chrome2 profile?

Re: multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously
Thank you for the bug report void_hero,
Only one shortcut is opened.
This is a bug with the Windows Shell.
I will add a work around for Everything when using the open verb.
For now, please disable shell_execute_invoke_id_list:
(for example, right clicking multiple mp3 files and clicking play may open each individual mp3, playing them all at the same time)
shell_execute_invoke_id_list

For now, please disable shell_execute_invoke_id_list:
- In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
/shell_execute_invoke_id_list=0 - If successful, shell_execute_invoke_id_list=0 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.

thanks, void,
this is 100% perfectly solve the issue in this scenario; and the mp3 related cases are totally fine to go with;

Re: multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously
i just tested what you said, it's the same effect with what i did: highlighting "chrome1" & "chrome2" & then Enter;
yup, this is the purpose here;
i'm not running 1.5 "as Administrator", and since now i used Mr.void's work around to make it solved, i will just let it go as it is;
before the work around, it will just open the chrome1;
Re: multi-open one application via their separate shortcuts simultanously
Everything 1.5.0.1301a fixes an issue with opening multiple lnk files.
Everything will now open each individual file when a lnk file is selected.
