1️⃣ Use Windows 11 Mail App to Manage Multiple Gmail Accounts

If you used Windows 10’s Mail app to check all your Gmail accounts in one place, you can do the same in Windows 11—but with the right settings.

🔹 How to Set It Up

1. Press Windows + S and type "Mail" to open the Mail app.
2. Click Settings (⚙️ icon) → Manage accounts.
3. Select Add account and choose Google (Gmail).
4. Log in with your first Gmail account.
5. Repeat the process for your other Gmail accounts.

💡 Common Issue: Accounts Disappearing?

If your Gmail accounts keep vanishing after restarting your laptop, it’s likely due to IMAP sync issues.

🔧 Fix it:

• Go to Settings → Manage accounts → Change mailbox sync settings.
• Make sure “Sync email” is turned ON.
• Set "Download email from" to "Any time" instead of a limited period.

This should keep your Gmail accounts from mysteriously disappearing the next time you log in.

2️⃣ Use Google Chrome for Multiple Gmail Accounts

If the Mail app isn’t cooperating, Google Chrome is your next best bet. But here’s the trick: instead of logging in the usual way, use multiple Chrome profiles.

🔹 How to Set It Up in Chrome

1. Open Google Chrome and go to Gmail.
2. Log in with your main Gmail account.
3. Click on your profile icon (top right corner) → Add another account.
4. Sign in with your other Gmail accounts.
5. To make things easier, enable "Stay signed in" when logging in.

💡 Common Issue: Keeps Logging Out?

• Fix it: Go to Chrome Settings → You and Google → Sync and Google services.
• Make sure "Allow Chrome sign-in" is enabled.

This will ensure your Gmail accounts stay logged in even after a reboot.

3️⃣ Try Outlook for a More Reliable Solution

🔹 How to Set It Up in Outlook

1. Open Outlook and go to File → Add Account.
2. Enter your Gmail address and sign in.
3. Repeat for your other Gmail accounts.
4. Once added, you can view all emails in a unified inbox.

🔧 Fix it: If Gmail won’t sync, go to Google Account Security Settings and allow “Less secure apps” access to enable Outlook integration.
