<div dir="ltr">It sounds like you want to make it impossible to start two copies of Win-Test at the same time, but I'm not sure why. It might be useful to have two copies running in some circumstances. This is possible via the -i (ini file option); one copy could use wt.ini and the other wt2.ini; one opens COM ports, the other does not.<div class="gmail_extra">
