How to Run Multiple Instances of Scrapebox - Adarme - 01-28-2012
Hi,
A pal of mine who also got scrapebox was asking me how he could run multiple instances of scrapebox on the same host/place. I read the FAQ and told him all he needed to do was to create another directory/folder to put the new instance of scrapebox and all will be good.
Anyway after a bit he came back and said that it did not work. I thought he was joking so I tried it myself. He was correct. Does anyone know how this can be done?

I just bought scrapebox myself, but I think i can help you here... you dont just copy the scrapebox program.. you have to copy the entire folder with all of its files...
example,
(1) just create an empty folder called "zzz" (or whatever)...
(2) put the original scrapebox folder (with the program and all other folders & files) in this "zzz" folder....
(3) now copy that Scrapebox folder (from step 2) and paste it in the "zzz" folder... and name it scrapebox2
sooooooo inside the "zzz" folder you will have two more folders: 'scrapebox' and 'scrapebox2'...
each of those folders will have the application.. and both will work..
by the way, u can keep copying and open up even more instances...

Simply just make a copy the folder and rename it
you can also check out this video that tells you how.
