Running two separate streams?

I'd like to run two separate streams to two separate twitch accounts with different scenes, controls, platform connections, etc. all from the same computer.

I know just doing it on a different PC is the most straightforward way to go, and I can probably do it via virtual machine on one PC.

I think running an older version of OBS (one stream running the most up to date version, and the other stream running a slightly older version) will work too.

But is there any way to run two separate streams with two separate connections (each their own twitch account), with two separate profiles while using the current OBS version?

Just to be clear, the reason I can't use a plugin that does multiple output is because I need each account to be signed out of the other. Each stream needs to have exclusive twitch account access.

That's cool! If I open a new instance of OBS and sign out of my account on one of them, eventually I've been having errors on the one I signed out of. Could you please elaborate a little more on what you do?

Will this allow me to access the currently live obs stream from a different PC? or is it essentially downloading another instance of OBS to another drive on my PC?

Portable OBS, you can unpack (from zip) many times to diffrents folder on disk and run OBS from this.

I have small firm who streaming sports, conferences and other (wedding, funerals).

I need to look for the portable OBS, but would this also allow me to be able to swap between my DJ profile and my gaming profile (TY Twitch for making me need 2 separate accounts...)

I found an answer from someone, and it's so simple I feel silly. At the top menus, go to Profile and New... you can then put in info to connect other account, and easily swap between them... (I did have to rename the original in OBS as it was listed as Untitled...) GL and happy gaming
