How to open 2 windows of File/Projects explorer in netbeans?

Is there a way to have 2 windows of files/projects open in netbeans? I want to have one of these windows pointed at one folder, and the other window pointed at another folder. When you have a lot of files and have to constantly switch between the two folders, it gets annoying to have to scroll that much each time.

Haven't found a way to have 2 project windows open but I have stacked a project and a file window in the same pane. Just open both windows and drag one down to half size. Also you can undock (float) the windows and put them where ever you want.
