I can have multiple instances of dbase apps running on my computer. But there are times (isolated cases) where additional instances of the app will not run. A system restart usually solves the issue. Hibernation and powerup is not system restart. Additionally posting a batch file. Try running it, it may solve the issue. (Batch file may require admin rights) Give it a try Regards Akshat ECHO OFF taskkill /F /IM "plus.exe" >closed.txt taskkill /F /IM "plusrun.exe" >>closed.txt tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq plus*" >tasks.txt find /I "Plusrun.exe" tasks.txt >NUL if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="0"  (goto:task_run) find /I "Plus.exe" tasks.txt >NUL if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="0"  (goto:task_run) goto:End_of :task_run echo The following tasks were not closed successfully >tasks2.txt type tasks.txt >>tasks2.txt echo >>tasks2.txt echo The following tasks were closed successfully >>tasks2.txt type closed.txt >>tasks2.txt start "" notepad tasks2.txt goto:EOF :End_of echo The above processes were closed successfully >>closed.txt start "" notepad closed.txt
