I have an account address1@gmail.com
which I used to make a YouTube account years ago (before Google bought YouTube). It got banned for some stupid reason so I made another YouTube account with address2@gmail.com
and all was good.
address1@gmail.com
is my main e-mail account that I use for everything. However, when I go to YouTube, I am "Logged out" because address1@gmail.com
is banned. When I click on "Sign In", my only option is to "Sign out and log in with another account".
A workaround I found was to log in with address2@gmail.com
and Add Account with address1@gmail.com
, which works except now address2@gmail.com
is my default account. So whenever I search, go to Gmail, Maps, etc. it will all be logged as address2@gmail.com
.
Are there any other suggestions as to what I can do?

The Chrome browser allows you to have separate "users" now. Go to "Users" > "Add New User". Each user has different extensions, logs into chrome with a different email address, and best of all it saves which tabs and active logins each user has open. So you'll have two separate browser windows but this should definitely solve the problem. Just don't accidentally go to YouTube on user 1!
