Want only one instance to run, for many searches

Hi - every time I run a new search in Everything, a new instance of the program is created. So, if I perform three searches, each accessed using my global hotkey, I have three instances of Everything running. Would it be possible to only use one instance for all of my searches?
(Windows 7, v 1.2.1.371)
Thanks!

See if Tools | Options -> General, 'Allow multiple windows' does what you need.
(It's there, in
"Everything" version 1.2.1.451a.)

Oops - don't know how I missed that. It's exactly what I need. Thanks!

This setting doesn't exist anymore — can you reply with updated information?

Seems to be "Create a new window when running Everything" in Tools | Options > General > UI now.

What is the situation you are running into?

Guess you've worked it out
