I am trying to create a second Ipython window in my VS Code Environment.

The response above is longer up-to-date. Now, VS code supports multiple interactive windows: Open settings and search "interactive window mode".
You can select from single, multiple, per-file
see https://visualstudiomagazine.com/articles/2020/08/13/vs-code-python.aspx
To create another interactive window go to command pallete (Ctrl+Shift+p) and search for "Create Interactive Window."

Sorry to say, but currently there can only be one Interactive Window open at a time. We do have an issue filed on allowing multiple windows here: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/issues/3104
Which you can upvote or comment on if you would like.
