Open other instances of TexStudio on Windows












0
















How can a second or more isntances of TexStudio be opened on Windows?




A good answer for Linux can be found here



Context



I'm reviewing my thesis and preparing a presentation, both using TexStudio for Windows. Would be really nice if I could have one window for each,such that if a correction must be made on the thesis (which takes long to compile) I can work on the presentation in the meantime. Opening TextStudio by clicking an icon does nothing. Trying to launch a .tex file opens it in the same instance of TexStudio.



I've tried to edit the properties of the icon to add the option –start-always in the target as suggested by this site. It opened a new file called '–start' instead of a new instance.
