Is there a way to run / execute more than one instance of MP3tag?
Thanks.

You could have a look here: [/t/2190/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/2190/1)
In short: You can use a tool like "Sandboxie" an try to run Mp3tag in several instances. Thats the way I do it and it works for me.
But don't try it on the same files at the same time!

Thanks for the pointer.
I did a search in English did not find that. Google translate it for me.
Sandboxie / VM solution is great.
I will setup a VM environment to try it out.
