Problem Statement

Kindly please consider allowing for multiple Claude Desktop windows.
Plenty of us love to just middle-click on the taskbar/dock icon and start a new window.

Proposed Solution

Allow multiple simultaneous windows.

Alternative Solutions

I know the workaround is to just use a PWA, but that doesn't have access to local files and also it's not very stable.

Priority

High - Significant impact on productivity

Feature Category

File operations

Use Case Example

Literally anything that involves working with local files or locally hosted MCPs that aren't available outside the network.

Additional Context
