What is the correct way to create a single instance application?

How can I define my application to open only one time after click on its exe file over and over?

Answer 1

I’ve always done this at the application’s entry point:

bool onlyInstance = false;

Mutex m = new Mutex(true, "MyUniqueMutextName", out onlyInstance);
if (!onlyInstance)
{
    return;
}

GC.KeepAlive(m);
