[squeak-dev] [Question] How to ensure a single windows vm instance?

Dear folks
I've developed a game in Squeak, mainly used on windows.
Due to some bug in the recent windows vm [1] I needed to fall back
to an old VM which does not provide a splash screen at the beginning.
As a consequence children playing this game might start the vm more
than one time -- not getting any feedback if it has already started
-- which leads to some nasty consequences.
So: I guess I miss something obvious, but can someone point me to an
easy way to ensure only a single squeak instance on windows?
I guess asking some registry or elsewhere for running (squeak)
processes might help, any pointers in this direction?
Thanks
Markus
