How to have two independent Android Studio instances?

I am working with 2 monitors. Let the left monitor show a project I forked from someone as a reference. As I am trying to understand the forked project, I create a new project on the right monitor.

During my learning, I need to access the contents of the forked project while I am writing on my own project. For example, when I open New Android Activity modal dialog window on the right monitor, I cannot access the open Android Studio on the left monitor to know the name of the activity, etc.

Is there any method to make both Android Studio instance independent? Opening modal dialog window on one instance will not prevent us from accessing the other instance.

You could use Jetbrains Toolbox https://www.jetbrains.com/toolbox-app/ to install two completely separate instances of Android Studio. Probably not the best solution but it works.
