I pinned notepad to the start menu, when I click it I expect to see a new instance of notepad if there is already 1 instance running but instead it refocuses on the already running instance
I know this can be achieved by right-clicking the start menu shortcut then clicking Open in New Window. I would like the shortcut to always Open in New Window when i run it. i Assume I hve to do change keys in registry? Whay keys should i change?
Edit: i created a shortcut in the desktop that point to notepad and it actually opens new instances instead of refocusing but I would really like to know how to change shortcut behaviors in the start menu interface so i could run multiple notepads from the start menu interface
btw, what is this new startmenu interface called?
I would like to ask for resources on how you edit the Buttons in the start-menu in a way that you can actually modify how they are ran (e.g. ran with parameters, etc.)
and also, where is the "start screen settings" (in which I do not mean the change-colors-only settings)?
