Open files from Explorer problem

I want to open files from Explorer and have them open as another window in the current Inventor session. I had a trial version of Inventor and was able to do this. Now, I have activated the full version and when opening from Explorer it opens the file in another session of Inventor. (Actually had to reinstall IV since we have 2 seats and are now using the network license option). Explorer gives me the choice of Inventor and the choice of Inventor View. What setting do I need to change to have new windows open in the current Inventor session.

Thanks,
Steve

Until you get it fixed, a workaround is to drag and drop the file from explorer to the top bar of Inventor.
