Can I create new MetaMask wallet?
Click on the MetaMask extension and click on “Get Started”. You can either import an existent wallet using the seed phrase or create a new one. Click on “Create a Wallet” and on the next window click on “I agree” if you would like to help improve MetaMask or click on “No Thanks” to proceed.
Yes, you can have two or more Metamask crypto wallets. Within the wallet, you can create multiple addresses that function as a wallet. Each one can be imported to multiple devices as well. So you can use the same address on more than one device.
We do not recommend that you create multiple accounts in your MetaMask wallet. If you have multiple accounts, then you would need to maintain some ETH in each account to pay for transaction processing fees.
Import Using Secret Recovery Phrase
But that'll add to your pains to remember each one of them separately. So, the best thing would be to use a password manager or use the same password for MetaMask on every platform. It further proves that MetaMask is a non-custodial wallet.
Due to the nature of the blockchain, users cannot permanently delete an account on the Ethereum network. If you no longer want to use MetaMask, simply uninstall.
If you'd like to create and manage multiple MetaMask accounts, you could do so simply by creating more accounts. Each of these is then associated with the same Secret Recovery Phrase. If you want to re-add accounts after restoring your wallet using your Secret Recovery Phrase, take a look at this article.
MetaMask will attempt to add your additional accounts where possible (assuming they were not imported) by checking your previous accounts in ascending order (i.e. Account 2, then Account 3, etc.). Accounts are added if they have a non-zero ETH balance.
Download MetaMask from the Chrome Web Store. Set a password and confirm your password. Copy your seed recovery phrase to somewhere safe or save seed words as a file.
To switch accounts, click your connected address at the bottom of the screen, then click "Disconnect". Then, on the main Metamask page, select the account you want to use and reconnect to 1inch with these directions.

How do I create a second MetaMask account?
How to create additional accounts and transfer Ethereum in Metamask ...
All MetaMask accounts are generated from your same seed phrase, and encrypted with your same password, so if you have it backed up, you will be able to restore all the accounts you create later on. You can create any number of accounts, and switch between them freely.
Not with data that is publicly available on the blockchain. Addresses are not connected to eachother in any way. If someone has access to your mnemonic phrase, extended private key or extended public key, they can link the different addresses, but of course you should never give this data out.
It is currently impossible to remove created accounts -- the ones that appear as 'Account 2' etc. when you click 'Create Account'. If you really want to remove them, you will need to remove MetaMask from your device (Extension or Mobile), reinstall, and then restore using your Secret Recovery Phrase.
A wallet reset essentially returns your MetaMask Extension or Mobile app back to the state it was in when you downloaded it: it clears your Secret Recovery Phrase and your accounts from the software. After you execute a reset, you'll need to re-enter your Secret Recovery Phrase to get access to your wallet again.
- On Extension, click the account icon on the top-right corner. On Mobile, tap the hamburger icon in the top left to open the main menu.
- Select Settings.
- Select Advanced.
- Scroll down and click Reset Account.
