Double window opens with pdf's

Unread post by cartel » 2017-11-12, 15:55

When a instance of PM is already open and I go to open a pdf file, 2 windows of the pdf open.
If I close all PM instances and open a pdf, it works as expected.

I use the sumatra plugin and never noticed this behavior before 27.6.0

Known issues in the current version:

Pale Moon launches twice when opening a URL from the command-line/other program.
This is a regression introduced in 27.6.0 due to an incorrect workaround for new window focus.
Status: [Fixed]
Workaround: None, but you can use the unstable version in the meantime if this is a breaking issue.
Timeline: Fixed in v27.6.1
Could you test this with the unstable version to see if it fixes it?

Call me crazy but after I installed the platform update, the double window doesn't happen anymore.
