Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del), check the processes and make sure another instance is not running with hidden forms.

What if you reboot? Does it start after a reboot?

No need to switch to Release. Just leave in Debug, then go to \AdvancedHMI\bin\Debug and run the application file.

No problem. The trick I use to make sure I get to the right place is to right click the AdvancedHMI project in Solution Explorer and select Open Folder in File Explorer
