Interesting... Thanks for the tip!

Middle click does work on my Windows 8 start screen; it always launches a new instance.

It doesn't do anything on my Windows 7 machine's start menu, though. But that's no problem because left click does what I want.

Testing a bit more... Now I see! In Windows 7, middle click works on the taskbar but not in the Start menu. In Windows 8, it works on both.
