Windows 10, Can I run multiple media files at the same time?

...uncheck "Use only one instance when starting from file manager".
Then you'll be able to open multiple instances directly from WinExplorer by "Open with.." ...

Great advice, works like a charm. Now all the OP needs is VLC. :)

I didn't know it...I've just found it when I looked at preferences and that's the advantage of a serious app: deeply configurable.
The disadvantage: boring because of...simplicity.

I find MPC-BE, (Black Edition), to be the most feature rich media player,
(Beta version release just last week)
You can run as many instances as your video card can handle; you can even change the UI on each instance!



The original MPC-HC is dead, developer gave up on it in July!

Greetings. I noticed this thread is three years old... time to revive it because I have a solution!

I don't know about you, but to me the best media player out there is Megafilm.

Megafilm - Free MajorGeeks Download Link

It's a freemium program with over 30 features in the context menu and the full version lets you have unlimited audio/video/image media files running at the same time!!! It only does legacy formats though. That means only GIFs, MP3s, MP4s... you name it.

Plus many other features in the FREE version. Check them out!
