IntelliJ IDEA by default has the functionality to debug/run more than one instance of the same program.

For example; if I run debug on Project X and it’s main threads is in waiting, sometimes I come back and run it again as the DEBUG button is not indicating a currently executing session. Nor does IntelliJ stop you from running another session of the same program (Project X)

Why is this functionality necessary, and how can I turn it off?

    a) The functionality is very good when you want to rerun a configuration in a new instance.
    For example a simple client that you want to start in several instances without any other effort.

    b) You cannot really turn it off.

    This will start a new Run or Debug session:

    Start new Run/Debug Session

    This will rerun the current Debug session:

    Rerun current Debug Session

    This will show you your current Debug sessions:

    Current running sessions
