Windows 11 - Shift+Left Click to open a new instance of app
Hi jhulala It seems did not work. I followed step by step your procedure, even though I tried using the executable that you shared us (thanks), and the situation persists.
I have tried open another windows clicking left mouse button and shift button at the same time in the task bar and nothing happens.

alekzmtz, I am sorry to hear you experienced difficulties with my solution. I have tested it on several computers, and I had no issues at all. Therefore, I suggest you do some troubleshooting: First, check your Windows 11 taskbar tray icons to ensure your AutoHotkey is running. You should see the "H" icon present there, and when you hover over the icon, the name of your AutoHotkey application should appear. Next, please check if the middle-button mouse click simulation is working properly. Online you can find many sites where this test can be performed (e.g., https://www.onlinemictest.com/mouse-test/). Hold the left Shift and tap/click to see if the tester receives a middle-button mouse click or not. If all works as expected, the problem is somewhere else, and further troubleshooting is necessary. I hope this helps.
