solved: i'm with computers for almost my whole life and i still underestimate how powerful a reboot can be. it's a shame. ;)

hi there. this morning i updated aurora to version 9.0a2, firefox is on its latest version, too. before i updated aurora i could open both aurora and firefox and they ran alongside. now after i update aurora, i click to open firefox but instead aurora opens. i checked the default browser settings and aurora is always set as not default but that doesn't change anything. can someone help? i'm running both aurora and firefox on win 7 enterprise x64 which is running as a vm on virtualbox. thanks,

The -no-remote argument is used when opening the second instance of firefox or aurora. It is normal when using multiple copies to use multiple profiles so that each version has a unique profile available, otherwise you will inevitable get problems. Normally shortcuts will be used that start each version with an appropriate profile.

I'm going to go ahead and mark this as solved- to match the comments in the question.
