Bug ID: 417201
Summary: When double-clicking on an associated file, a new
instance of Kate is started rather than a new tab
within an already-running instance. Furthermore, when
the new instance is closed, a kate.exe process is left
behind.
Product: kate
Version: 19.12.1
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When double-clicking on an associated file, a new instance of Kate is started
rather than a new tab within an already-running instance. Furthermore, when
the new instance is closed, a kate.exe process is left behind.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a document in Kate
2. In File Explorer, double-click on a file associated with Kate
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
New Kate window and instance is started to display the second file.
EXPECTED RESULT
I would prefer the second document to open as a second tab within the current
instance. That is how Kate works when I am on Linux.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1809, build 17763.973
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The version that works for me on Linux is very old, 3.14.8
