Can I have more than one session of Firefox going at one time?

I am setting up LastPass. It runs in Firefox. But I need to log into other accounts to have LastPass generate a strong password and save it in the LastPass password vault. Therefore, I need to use Firefox twice at the same time. Possible? If so, how? If not, what's the work around? I am using Windows 10.

Hi Scoopy.

Yes, it's possible with some tweaking. You can create a new profile and run it beside your default using the -no-remote switch, which is described here.

The other option is to download Firefox portable, which stored its data separately and can be started even your Firefox is already running.

Not sure what you're up to but so be it.

Why?
