Anyone figure out a way or is it completely impossible to have 2 separate jagex accounts/launchers open at once I have 2 different jagex acounts as I did not want all my accounts under 1 login because of my past experience with jagex security (had multiple accounts hacked even with 2 step) and now that I realized how much of a pain in the ass it is having to put in my auth code EVERY SINGLE TIME I login to a different jagex account it is extremely annoying and making me want to cancel my subs. Seen one person say to switch users on my pc but that wouldn't allow me to play both accounts at once and I cannot use steam launcher because I have a different account linked to steam.

you might be able to get it working in a jank fashion by trying to use a software like sandboxie to open a 2nd jagex launcher (i haven't created a jagex account to link my shit yet, so idk how the setup is. ive only added a couple accounts to the first launcher they released)

I have multiple accounts linked to the jagex account launcher thing and you can launch multiple accounts at once

are they all linked to an actual jagex account, or did you just log into them on the jagex launcher?
think its 2 different systems, shit is confusing

Yeah I have multiple JAGEX accounts with 1 runescape account linked to each so therefore when I login to the new jagex launcher only 1 of my runescape accounts are there so I have to logout of the launcher and log in with the other JAGEX account and everytime I want to swap to the other account to open it I have to put in auth code so gets kinda annoying having to do that 2+ times a day

okay yeah, in that case then try sandboxie.
i think there is sandboxie plus & sandboxie classic, both free(?)
if one doesn't work, try the other. it forces program to be opened in its own sandbox (similar to a VM, but more lightweight)

i'd suggest youtube to fill in the gaps, but ill try to do quick explanation on how to try it

1) create new sandbox, name it w/e
2) right click the sandbox created & select "run program"
3) i think it mentions you can type a period (.) into the prompt that comes up so you can search your computer for a program
4) locate jagex launcher or w/e the shit is that they use for the actual jagex accounts (lmk if its the same, dont feel like looking further into it xd )
should be located in : C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
5) ???
6) hopefully profit

can't guarantee this will work, gl!

edit:
there are some annoying default settings that sandboxie has like changing the window title & adding a fat yellow border around the client, but you can customize it to be more lightweight
there are also other ways to make this process easier if it works, like creating desktop shortcut to run the program, or shits like that

Thank you looking like it is going to work as long as I don't close out the jagex launcher or restart my pc which I rarely ever do but I have both jagex accounts logged in at the same time
