Run multiple Claude instances
at the same time.

One Claude window is never enough.

Claude Desktop only lets you use one account at a time. If you juggle work, personal, and client accounts - you're constantly logging out and back in, mixing contexts, and losing focus.

🔁

No parallel work

Only one Claude window open at a time. Switch accounts = close everything and start over.

🔒

Constant logouts

Switching between a work and personal account means logging out every single time.

😵

Mixed contexts

Work prompts and personal chats in the same window. One profile per purpose - that's the fix.

Each profile gets its own isolated browser data folder. Log in once per profile, leave them all open simultaneously. Switch context without ever logging out again.

Everything you need to manage Claude like a pro.

All features available from the free version - no account required.

Parallel Instances

Frequently asked questions.

Can I really run multiple Claude accounts at the same time?

Yes - that's the core feature. Each profile gets a separate browser data folder, so every Claude window is completely isolated. You can be logged into different Anthropic accounts simultaneously, or the same account across different profiles.

Will it break when Claude Desktop updates?

No. Claude Desktop Manager automatically detects the new Claude executable path after each update. You don't need to do anything.

Is this affiliated with Anthropic?

No. Claude Desktop Manager is an independent third-party tool. It is not made by, affiliated with, or endorsed by Anthropic.

What happens to my data if I delete a profile?

The profile is removed from the list, but the underlying session data folder is preserved. You can recover it at any time by creating a new profile pointing to the same folder.

Is it safe? Does it send data anywhere?

Claude Desktop Manager only contacts Gumroad's API to verify your license key. Nothing else is sent. Your Claude session data stays entirely on your machine.

Which Windows versions are supported?

Windows 10 (build 19041 or later) and Windows 11, on both x64 and ARM64. Claude Desktop must be installed first.

Can I use it with Claude Code, not just Claude Desktop?

Yes. Every profile is also a fully isolated Claude Code environment, with its own configuration kept separate from your global one. Open a terminal for any profile in one click, and use the Sessions board to see which Claude Code agent is working, waiting for you, done or stalled. See the guide for details.

How do I switch between profiles quickly?

Three ways: assign a global hotkey to each profile, or press the global switcher (default Ctrl+`) to open a keyboard palette and filter to any profile, or click the tray icon. The switcher and per-profile hotkeys are available on every tier, including Free.

Can each profile have different MCP servers?

Yes. Each profile has its own MCP configuration, editable from a built-in validated JSON editor (Options ⋯ → MCP servers). You can also seed a new profile with another profile's MCP setup - without copying its login.
