I tried the option of adding the "-multiinst" to the commandline of a shortcut to see if this would bring up a separate instance. It didn't. It simply refocused on the current instance. I'm disappointed. I hope this gets fixed. I really get steamed at only having to open just one instance of an editor to do my work.
The only workaround is the Alt-F6 shortcut to open a new instance of the current workspace to get another instance of Notepad++. This "bug" is referring to the "so-called" latest release 5.0.3. If this doesn't get fixed by the end of this month...I'm downloading an evaluation copy of UltraEdit.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Hi,
try it with "-multiInst" parameter. This parameter is case sensitive (but why ?)
