That is, if the application is already running, and it gets repeated again,
what would not start a second copy.

Hello Alexander,

Use "global" mutex to have single copy of your app. Use MSDN to find detailed
info about global mutex

btw, u can find samples in this article http://codeproject.com/KB/cs/singleinstanceapplication.aspx
