Nothing is wrong actually. pcmanfm file manager is designed to run as a
single instance application, it is done for memory optimization (since
LXDE is a lightweight DE). So it is never a bug but a feature. Each user
has only one process instance (but multiple windows, of course). You can
try to open an ssh connection with X tunnel as another user for another
instance (i.e. 'ssh -X user2@localhost pcmanfm' or whatever) which will
be not owned by your user and will have separate home directory and also
separate configuration. Make another instance for current user is not
allowed.

With best regards,
Andriy.
