Trouble Putting 2nd One Drive on Windows Explorer

Hello:

I have several computers.  On my first computer, when I open file explorer, it shows TWO separate instances of OneDrive, one personal and one for my company (See illustration).  On a second computer, I was setting up One Drive, and the only option it gives me is my Personal One Drive link in file explorer.  I tried just about everything to add the second one drive (Office 365) link to my file explorer, but could not make it happen.

 

How can I accomplish having both one drives in file explorer as shown in the illustration?

 

Thanks!

      Mike: Thanks for replying. when I tried to add more accounts, it was still on my regular 5 Gigabyte OneDrive. It didn't affect my Office 365 One drive which is a separate application with 1 Gig of storage. I can paste the 365 URL into the main startup window, and it creates a link to the 365 version, but doesn't put it in the file explorer.

      Mike: You are correct about using the Account Tab. Sorry it took so long for me to figure it out.
