    I don't use Mono anymore, but IIRC if you keep Mono open and restart Unity to get it to sync properly again (or vice-versa? I can't recall).

    You may also need to have "Editor Attaching" checked in Edit->Preferences->External Tools.

    This is an old thread, but I get the same issue now. When I click to open a script, an extra MonoDeveloper instance is started. I get a new instance for every time I open a script. However, the new instances never opens the script, the script is opened by the instance that was started first.

    My settings.
    – Single Unity install (Unity 2017.3.0.b10).
    – OSX 10.13.1
    – Preferences–>External Tools->External Script Editor: MonoDevelop (build-in)
    – Preferences–>External Tools->Editor Attaching: enabled
    – Finder set to open .cs and .sln files with the same MonoDevelop as default for all.

    Please let me know if you have the same issue or have managed to solve it.

    Is it a new issue introduced by version 2017.2? I didn't encounter this issue earlier ...
    BTW, I don't think Carl Emil resolved this issue ... He was talking about what he met.

    Anytime I click on an error in the console, another instance of MonoDevelop opens... VERY DANGEROUS! (Unity 2017.3.03f)
    edit.. this is if I open MonoDevelop, from my desktop, then open any relevant script from Unity.

    Go into your project folder and delete the .csproj files and the .sln file. These files will be regenerated. See if you still have the problem.
