Multiple Desktops

I use 2 virtual desktops.

After I open Google Chrome browser window on the 2nd Desktop, and then go back to Desktop 1 and open Chrome again, it opens a TAB on the Chrome window in Desktop 2.  Not good!

Why is it not opening a new Chrome window on Desktop 1?  

Is there a way to do that?

Please don't ask me to use Edge. Even though it works the way I would expect, it creates other issues for me.  For example, Edge can't "cast/connect" to my Chromecast device from my laptop.

I got it to work, but had to change all registry occurrences of:   
...chrome.exe" -- "%1"      to  
...chrome.exe" --new-window "%1"  
Not just in:   HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http\open\command
