Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

just make another Eve Folder with a different name like maybe "Eve2" or whatever and copy the contents of the first install. You will have to look elsewhere to figure out how to keep it from sharing the settings in the documents folder though, I dont know how, I just use a single install, unless I make a clone for SISI

You do no need a second installation just in order to play with 2 accounts.
Use one installation. It's working fine.

The Junction method here is best - one install, as many instances (with their own completely separate settings, overview, etc.) as you want.

This is what I do, just load the launcher twice.. once for each login.
