To run another instance of Skype on Windows desktop:

  1. Press the Windows fa829_windowsicon.png and R keys on your keyboard at the same time.
  2. In the Run window, type %programfiles(x86)%/skype/phone/ and click OK.

    If you get an error, try again but this time type %programfiles%/skype/phone/ in the Run window.
  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.
  5. On the Shortcut tab, in the Target field add /secondary to the end of the path. The Target field should now read "C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /secondary (or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /secondary if you’re running a 64-bit operating system).
