Disable program check on startup

When a portableapp starts up it checks to see if there is already a non-portable version of the same software running. Is there a way to disable this? I have found that if I start up the portable version, then the non-portable version there is no issue.

I understand that I can rename the .exe of the non-portable version and work around this, but this is not a suitable solution.

What is going on is that we have a win server setup where users RDP into to perform their work. Some users have their own non-portable versions of software running and it is not feasible to get them to rename them all.

Thanks!

...

Use an INI (read the readme) and set AllowMultipleInstances to true.
