@dalthviz, please focus on finishing this one this weekend so I can release 3.2.8 tomorrow.

@dalthviz, take a look at this one. Please use one environment where you install Spyder with conda and another one with pip to test this. It’s important that you install Spyder in them and test if single instance mode is working or not, instead of using bootstrap.py.

The most probable thing we need to do is to expand the criteria to detect if Spyder is running here:
