Run two instances of IntelliJ of the same version
已回答
How can I run two instances of the same IntelliJ version but both have different plugins configured. For example, I want a lightweigt instance with only some basic plugins and a full fledged version with all plugins.
I can install the same version of IntelliJ more than once via the Toolbox app but I can only start one.

Hello Jamie Craane
You can try changing the location of the IDE directories to set a specific configuration for the instance. Please follow the below links to see instructions:
