Make multiple/parallel instances compatible with opening multiple files via context menu

Post by vertigo »

Currently, if the option to allow multiple parallel instances of HxD is enabled (which I prefer, so multiple file comparisons can be run at once), it breaks the opening of files via the explorer context menu. Without multiple instances enabled, if a couple files are selected in explorer and opened in HxD, they're opened in the same HxD window, allowing them to be compared. But if the option enabled, opening the files results in each being opened in its own instance of HxD, which prevents their comparison. Regardless of the setting, when files are opened via the context menu, they should be opened in the same instance of HxD.
