Another time, I made a new profile for the 2nd copy and changed it in X-Firefox.ini too....Furthermore I tried to use the parameter -no-remote in X-Firefox.ini...etc...But everytime, I receive the notice: "firefox is already running", or in English or in Italianusing the -no-remote with firefox.exe in the bin\firefox directory works well.so it must be possible, only there seems a configuration problem with the x-versionBeing confused: who had been able to run multiple instances of x-firefox & what was the configuration?Many thanks,Stijn http://www.winpenpack.com/main/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?58741 2026-03-07T09:52:41+01:00 Taf Hi Stijn,sorry for the delay of our answer, but I was pretty sure to have already answered yesterday afternoon, but I forgot to send my post after writing! Apologies Anyway, it is quite easy to solve your issue:in the "X-Firefox.ini" file You need to modify only the following parameter:MultipleIstances=trueYou can find it almost at the end of the ini file, in [Options]IMPORTANT NOTE:Be careful! Be sure to avoid starting at the same time an installed Firefox session and a X-Firefox session in two different istancesEnabling MULTIPLE ISTANCES, the risk is to loose your original profile data in any INSTALLED firefox present on your PC.If You have ONLY X-Firefox on your PC, You are free of risks! PS:I don't remember if unidentitingMOZ_NO_REMOTE=1is still working...Theoretically it'will work, but I don't use it anymore.Have a nice week-end http://www.winpenpack.com/main/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?58741 2026-03-07T09:52:41+01:00 Stijn Hi Taf,Thanks for your reply.I tried this out. Using another copy of same x-firefox or launching it again, opens a new window, but doesn't launch a second executable with its own cache etc but only opens a new window.I did something wrong? http://www.winpenpack.com/main/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?58741 2026-03-07T09:52:41+01:00 Taf Hi Stijn, You are right! I forgot to tell you one more info.To have a second executable with its own cache etc. (as per your request) you need to enable also:MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1uncommenting itat least in one of 2 different X-firefox.I made some test right now:I have a X-Firefox with 24.6.0 ESR release and another one with latest version (30.0)with different settings and different extensions.Unsing:multipleIstances=true in bothandMOZ_NO_REMOTE=1in one of them, I'm able to run different executablen in same timehope this helps http://www.winpenpack.com/main/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?58741 2026-03-07T09:52:41+01:00 Stijn Hi Taf,Thanks a lot. It works.I did the test by running 3x firefox:1) multipleIstances=true in all x-firefox.iniand2) MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 in all but oneMany thanks,Stijn http://www.winpenpack.com/main/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?58741 2026-03-07T09:52:41+01:00 Taf Happy being helpful!
