Run Multiple Instances Of Skype

[Namoh]

If you have two Skype accounts and would like to be logged in on both of them simultaneously follow these simple steps:

1. Press the Windows key and R keys on your keyboard at the same time.

2. In the Run window, type %programfiles(x86)%/skype/phone/ and click OK.


3. Right-click the Skype.exe file and select Send to > Desktop (create shortcut).

4. Find the shortcut you just created on your desktop, then right-click it and select Properties.



6, Click OK. Now each time you double-click the Skype shortcut on your desktop, it opens a new instance of Skype.

This is very interesting. Have you tested it yourself? Does it work on Windows 10 too?

 

[Namoh]

Yup. Works fine on W10. Im running two instances now.

Doesn't it make the PC run a lot slower than with only one session running?
