Okay, I'm having a bit of problems with windows vista in running more than one window of SL, it won't let me change the shortcut so that I can do that. I get an error message saying..that its not valid in the target box, and to make sure that the path and file name are correct.
Has anybody else had this problem? And if so.. Do you know how to fix it?
Thanks!

It might be useful to copy and paste what you put in the shortcut's target field.

Thanks! Are you putting the -multiple *after* the path and filename in quotes? "C:\whatever\whatever\whatever.exe" -multiple

You need a space before -multiple

From: HoneyBear Lilliehook You need a space before -multiple uh-uh. Not on XP, anyway. ... wasn't the space between the hyphen and the word 'multiple' done away with for 1.20?

That has been killing me for 4 days.. And I didn't think about not having a space there. And I got tired of opening up 2 computers.. So Thank you all for the help!
