  • Note: The instance number must be an Arabic numeral
  • The original EXE file uses instance number 0
  • Multiple instances can run simultaneously
  • Recommended: Close the monitor when running multiple instances; you can minimize 2K Mate

  • You need to purchase a separate code for each instance
