eMule Links open another eMule window:

I finally remembered what I had done, and how to fix it, at least in my instance.  I had gone into Administrative Tools, Services, and set to 'Disabled' the option for:

Secondary Logon

I reset this to automatic, and clicked on Start Application.  I then re-booted eMule, and not only did this fix the links opening new eMule windows, but also fixed:

Run eMule as unprivileged user 'eMule Secure'

I noticed an error message in the eMule log when the links were misbehaving.  I hope this nfo can be of use to others, as I am pretty sure that I am not the only one that likes to play with 'tweaking' windows xp, hahhahahhahah.

IMHO

P.S. For some reason, I had to re-boot one of my computers to get this fix working.  You might also???

Thanks!!

Almost a year after your post, but hey!
This fixed both of those exact same problems for me too

Just reading this thread, resurrected from over a decade ago, and wondering if just right-clicking on a file from Windows file explorer, selecting 'open with' and then selecting eMule as the permanent file to associate that extension with, and letting Windows internally update the references (as per design) may not be the easiest and most elegant way to resolve this issue? No faffing around with hand modifying the registry, third party addons of dubious intent, etc - just pure Windows. This is a Windows associations issue, plain and simple.

Sorry, but unfortunately it doesn't work that way.
It's a Chromium "security feature"
