Bug in 31.0.2 when using multiple instance

Hi, I'm currently using 30.2.3 because all newer version got a bug when using multiple instance.

abstract:
I'm using 1 obs instance for virtual camera, while the second instance record my screen.
This is usefull for using virtual camera in Zoom or Team, while recording the said team.

Since obs 31.0, this is no longuer possible.
if you launch 2 instance in 31.0.2, 2 bugs occurs.
1. first bug: The html Dock for Lowerthirds doesn't load on second instance
2. when you try to CLOSE the second instance, it doesn't do anything. You need to reboot the computer.

I have tried all release after 30.2.3, none work.
If I could avoid using a second instance I wouldn't mind, but it's not possible since I'm not recording the virtual camera, I'm only recording my screen.
any reason why this occur in the latest 31.xx version ?

This isn't considered a bug, if you are running multiple instances of OBS you should be running each additional instance in portable mode to avoid issues like this.
