Hi Karl, For the Windows executable you need to edit the oxygen.vmoptions file as explained in the user guide topic from my previous reply. But, if you do not need multiple instances all the time then I guess you can work as you described.

That works, I've made an edit to the Oxygen.bat. However typically I am launching Oxygen with the Exe, as in: WINDOWS | START | TYPE "oxyg" | CLICK on Oxygen Icon

So, I suppose when I need a 2nd instance I'll just go find Oxygen.bat

Hi Karl,

You need to set a system property in the startup script with a command line parameter like below:

-Dcom.oxygenxml.MultipleInstances=true

How you do that depends on how you start oXygen. We have a description on how to do this for different platforms in the user guide: http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/index.html?q=/doc/ug-oxygen/topics/se...

I've done it before, but not sure how. So how do you open a 2nd instance of Oxygen?
