I’ve set Outlook to hide to the Notification Area when minimized to continue to run it in the background.

I then relaunch Outlook again either via the Start Menu, a Desktop shortcut or by double clicking the Outlook icon in the Notification Area.

However, each time that I re-launch Outlook, it actually creates a new Outlook window instead of reusing the Outlook window that was already running. To actually close Outlook then, I have to close all the additionally opened windows as well.

How can I stop this and make it reuse the original Outlook window?
