Already many profiles are open. Close one before opening another

This is a refusal to open one more, never a shutdown of what is already running. The number in the line is how many profiles are open at this second, and the ceiling it ran into is computed from the memory in this machine.

The number is how many are open

The line names the count open right now, not the ceiling. Reading it as the ceiling sends you looking for a window that is not there.

The ceiling itself sits on the Engine screen under Browsers at once.

Where the ceiling comes from

It is computed from the memory this computer reports, leaving several gigabytes to the system and about one to each browser. It never falls below four and never rises above thirty two.

So eight gigabytes gives about five, and a workstation with sixty four gives far more.

Windows already open are left alone

Nothing you have running is closed. The app declines the next one and stops there, and the profiles on screen keep their sessions.

Raise it yourself

Browsers at once takes a number of your own and keeps it, inside the same floor of four and ceiling of thirty two.

Put it back to the automatic value and the limit follows the hardware again, which matters when you move to another machine.

Queues wait instead of failing

A bulk launch, a flow run and a schedule do not write a profile off when there is no room. They wait for a slot for up to half an hour.

A night warm-up of thirty profiles therefore finishes on a machine that holds five at a time.

An open profile is counted once

Pressing start on a profile that already runs does not meet the ceiling at all. The app brings the window forward instead of counting a second copy.

Collecting the evidence

If the count in the line does not match the windows you can see, note the number and reproduce it once more.

Write from the Support screen. The report that travels with the message carries the system, the memory and the chosen ceiling, which is exactly what this refusal is computed from.

What this article does not cover

  • The daily pace of actions inside a profile. The app counts those and warns you, and it never steps in.
  • A profile that will not open while nothing else is running. The line there is different.
  • How much memory each browser really takes. The ceiling is an estimate made before anything opens.

Where this is decided

Each number above is one place in the code and one stand.

Questions

Does closing a window free a slot at once?
Yes. The count is taken at the moment of the next launch, not on a timer.
Why is four the floor?
Below four the product stops being useful for the work people buy it for, and a machine that cannot hold four browsers will struggle with one.
Does a profile with no window count?
Yes. It is a full browser without a window on screen, and it costs the same memory as one with a window.

Still stuck

Support reads the report that travels with your message and answers with the cause, not with a checklist.
