If the new "-asadmin" command line parameter is used to start VoiceAttack while there is already a running instance, a new instance will be launched.

This also happens when the "Run VoiceAttack as an Administrator" option is used; When starting another instance it will keep running instead of bringing up the running instance.


Each new instance aside from the first will state there was an improper shutdown, as "LastExit" won't have been written yet.

Likewise, if the last instance closed isn't the original, "LastStartup" and "LastExit" won't match either, also showing the improper shutdown message.


This happens regardless of whether the initial running instance is elevated.


Launching a non-elevated instance will not keep it running, however it will not pass data to an elevated instance(E.G. using the "-command" parameter will have no effect).





EDIT: Fixed in v1.7.5.11

This has been corrected and will be in the next release.

Maybe   :)
