Generate/SecureFXsysicon.jpg  Run Multiple Instances of SecureFX


The SecureFX Single Instance feature, introduced in version 8.5, causes each new SecureFX session to be started in a new tab in the same SecureFX instance. It prevents multiple SecureFX processes from running simultaneously. If a SecureFX process is already running, attempts to start another will simply give focus to the existing process.

You can override this behavior by editing the Global.ini file in the Configuration folder. The Configuration folder is found in the General / Configuration Paths category of SecureFX's Global Options dialog.

To have each new SecureFX session start in a separate SecureFX process, edit the line:

D:"SecureFX Single Instance"=00000001

Change this to:

D:"SecureFX Single Instance"=00000000

Important: To avoid the possibility of damaging INI files, always close SecureFX and SecureCRT before editing INI files.
