Like I've been told my self on numerous occasions: read the Mailing List Archives, all the answers are in there. Before you ask something on the list, please read the archives. But, since I am a nice guy, and don't care much, the answer is: You're on Windows, and Windows doesn't support copyover since an instance of a program cannot take over/inherit descriptors like on Linux systems, so it just shuts down the program and restarts it.
