A quicker way to process multiple files
You can share your files without having to sign in and sign out multiple times if you have two separate browser windows open. You can do this by either using an Incognito window or using two separate browsers, for example Chrome and Firefox, or Edge.
You should have one window with your personal Adobe profile and a second window with your JISC profile and move between them.
