Hi,

If I start TheIDE twice, it runs in two instances. (On Windows 10)
So far I avoided to do this, because this could trigger problems which confuse a beginner like me.

However, sometimes I would like to do this.
One IDE on Monitor 1 the other on Monitor 2.
For example, to compare two projects or to copy code between two projects.
Also for testing and comparison I would want to compile and possibly debug code in both IDEs.

Is this possible, recommended or disrecommended?

1) Can I run two IDEs on the same project?
2) Can I run two IDEs on different projects?
