Double click for open a file in the same instance

[Daniele]

Hi,
when I double click on a file that will be opened with pl/sql developer it creates a new instance of the program even if I have one already open. I can not open a file by double click as is already from the panel file manager or like the drang and drop of the file?

This is actually controlled in the Windows Explorer, and by default it should open in the existing PL/SQL Developer instance.

Can you go to Tools > Preferences > Files / Extensions, press the "Register filetypes" button, press OK, exit PL/SQL Developer, reboot the PC, and try again?

Thank you, now it works
