How to open multiple PDFs at once in PDF24 Reader?

[idahosurge]

How do I open multiple PDF's in PDF24 Reader from Windows Explorer?  I open a PDF and when I double click on another PDF in Explorer it opens the PDF in the same PDF24 window so I can only look at one PDF at a time.

I found this thread in your help forums, but your solution does not work.

When I right click on another PDF in Explorer and left click "open" or right clock on another PDF, left click "open with" and left click "PDF24" it always opens the new PDF in the same window.  I need to be able to look at multiple PDF's at the same time.  I am using Windows 11.

1. You can right click on a tab and then you can open a PDF in an extra window.
2. You can also drag and drop a tab out of the PDF24 Reader frame to open the tab in a separate window.
3. You can change the settings and untick "Open in existing instance" checkbox.

Thank you for the extremely quick response!

Settings for PDF24 changed and I can now open PDF's in multiple instances.
