are you aware that (assuming you have run the windows install 
script that comes with vim -- i think it's called install.bat) if 
you right click on a file in windows explorer you get a context 
menu that includes the option of opening in a single (existant) 
instance of vim

i know using windows tends to make one double-click happy, but 
possibly this knowledge can guide you to the Other Button
