PuTTY: Multiple Instances with different user

Hello community,
“Another instance of PuTTY is already running. Please close other instances of PuTTY before starting PuTTY Portable.”

This is the error message we get when...
1) Install PuTTY Portable at Workstation.
2) User "A" logs in and starts PuTTY Portable
3) User "A" blocks his session..
4) User "B" logs in and starts PuTTY Portable

Is there a solution for this?
We distribute PuTTY Portable to our workstations via OPSI (software distribution) and we need every user within the workstation to be able to run PuTTY Portable with a uniform configuration/profile.
Thank you

Same or Separate install?

Is this two users pointing to the same install of PuTTY Portable or two separate users with two separate installs?

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
