SeaMonkey and EML files

[ButchZ]

Hi!

Does anyone here know how I could solve this problem?

In my Windows I have the setting that EML files are opened and displayed with SeaMonkey. Which of course works fine, but only when SeaMonkey is not running yet. When SM is active, I get the message when I double click on an EML file: "Another instance of SeaMonkey is already running." (I am using SM Portable Edition.)

No idea?

Can anyone at least tell me if the non-portable version of SM behaves the same way?

No problem with double click when SM is installed.
With SM portable you can use drag and drop

Since you're using Portable, I'm thinking that rather then associating EML with "seamonkey.exe", you should set you association to "SeaMonkeyPortable.exe".


I don't use (Portableapps) SeaMonkey, so I'm not sure, but you could give it a try & see what happens.


(What is happening is that you're trying to open a second instance, & that is causing the message you are seeing.
