Well after looking on the problem I recommend that you should remove the duplicate entries.

1. You have to launch Finder and click on File and go for Find.
2. You have to enter the name of the program into the search box and hit enter.
3. Now you have to duplicate icon and transfer the same from the Move to Trash.
   
4. Finally you should empty Trash and you should relaunch the program.

I am not sure but there could be bug issue associated with the software on the computer of yours. so I recommend that you should contact the developer of the software and file a bug report to them and they will fix the matter and release the patch which you can apply to fix the matter of yours.
