Weird issue with

Persistence of Vision(tm) Ray Tracer Version 
3.8.0-alpha.9475849+av541.msvc14.win64

and maybe earlier.

In Windows explorer I can select two POV files, then right click on one 
of them and select "Edit in POVray". However, two separate instances of 
POVray are created, with one file in each.

if you instead select three (or more) POV files and "Edit in POVray", 
all three files are opened in the same instance.

Oops. Wrong forum.

Not really. povray.bugreports is about bugs, povray.windows is about the
Windows version of POV-Ray. Your post is about a bug specific to the
Windows version, so that's right in the center of the Venn diagram.
