I know you somehow need to reproduce this behavior.
Indeed we do, it's the first order of business in any troubleshooting schema.
If I was the only reported I would say it is my fault. 2 person than this is a coincidence but now I see third person on the same issue. (I'm not sure on last reported but If it's the same tho.).
And why we are trying to see what is common to each or what you all are doing (and to what) that is causing the behavior. We did find an issue with WinRAR (which could be the app itself) but every other app mentioned we can not reproduce (on multiple PCs).
Could you please revert what you did on 1.44?
No, that is not how this works. If there is indeed an issue, it needs to be fixed...
IF you open second VSCode editor from VSCode (like an extension that opens another window) it just doesn't work.
What extensions and what is the exact path \ exe it is calling? Could you produce a video and post a shared link (GoogleDrive, OneDrive, DropBox) to it?
Also If you start VSCode by double-click on Desktop icon then start an another VSCode instance via keyboard shortuct assigned to the exe, it just doesn't work.
This is me trying that example as written:
https://cdn.stardock.us/support/uploads/2020-11-02_11-11-34.mp4
In it, I am:
- Opening up VSCode from a shortcut on the desktop (no arguments)
- Using our app, Keyboard Launchpad, to open VSCode from the assigned keyboard shortcut (again, no arguments)
The last one (KB shortcut) failed initially, it opened up in a new window, but as you can see in the video, it worked every time after - I am uncertain why or if I did something different and just did not notice.
If I am not doing something you are, tell me what that is please, and Ill test it.
