When I have e.g. Firefox open and I press the Super key, type 'firefox' my existing window is shown. Can I change this to open a new window, instead of the already opened?



Thanks.

You can start a new instance of a program just clicking on its launcher icon with your mouse middle button (usually it is a wheel that can also be clicked).



If you prefer the use of keyboard only, instead of pressing Enter, press Ctrl+Enter to launch a new instance of an application.



Few programs do not support more than one instance running at the same time. For example Firefox will tell you there is an instance already running if you try to launch a second one. But it works for most of programs.
