Using a desktop with Windowsw 10.

Just created a second gmail account, but can not open this account.  Always comes back to original with no place to click on new account.  Please help

​You probably did not log out of your first account ... or you had the checkbox checked to "Stay signed in" while you were logging in to it.

If the latter is what happened, do this:  After you sign out​, the login screen shows your old account, and only a place for typing in a password.  Underneath, there is a link to "Sign in with a different account".

Click that ("Sign in with a different account").

Then click "Remove".

Then look for the "x" to the right of your "old" account name.

Click that "x".

Then click "Done".

Make sure you do all these steps, in that order.

Alternatively ... when you are still logged in to your old account, you can also open your new account at the same time.  Click on the circle in the upper right (that you would use to logout), and select "Add account".  Then sign in to the new account.

​Regards,

Andy

I had the same trouble when I tried to open a Gmail account for my wife. My workaround was to allocate my wife's gmail account only to Chrome, and my account to IE. That has worked well for about 6 months now.

Yes, except there is no workaround required. Despite all the pains taken to explain best practice and the why and how, you have chosen your own method.

Just confirming that both Andy's and Marko's solutions work fine.  I normally have at least seven Gmail accounts open simultaneously.  (BTW, there is a limit to how many accounts you can have open at once, but I've only hit it on one occasion.  I think it's at least 12.)
