      If I have two instances of Npp running and I double click on a file in File Explorer to open it, how does Npp choose which instance it will open the file in?Thanks!

        The files will always be open on the last instance of Npp.
        I dont know why you would need multiple Npp instances , for me I usualy just go to “View” -> “Move/Clone curent document” and depending on the situation pick one of the options there.
        I hope this was helpful…
        Have a good day .
