Thanks for this fantastic clean and simple app that does everything it claims to do! I love it.

I work at multiple schools and for each school I use a different User Account on my pc. I can't seem to be running gInk on multiple accounts. When I change users I need to make sure I close gInk on the user I'm switching from and I need to manually activate it on the user I'm switching to.

So I know a work around but if I forget to do this before the start of the class it's valuable time and doing this while projecting my screen offline and especially online these days is kind of a hassle. Is there maybe a way to fix this?

There is some code that is checking if a process is alreadly running. I've prepared a test version from my fork (https://github.com/pubpub-zz/ppInk) where I'm checking the sessionId also.

Can you test it

Excellent response time! Amazing. I see this issue is labeled as an enhancement. It seems like a possible solution is already found in a fork, so maybe that will help this project as well.

@pubpub-zz the attached test version of your fork does seem to solve this problem. It was a quick test but I was able to run your version alongside eachother on both users. Thank you.
