How to open two solutions in one Visual Studio environment?

I am currently working on two different solutions, i.e. Solution1and Solution2. Since these two solutions are dependent on each other, so during development I have to open two separate Visual Studio.

Switching between these Visual Studio is very difficult. I cannot combine these two solutions in One, as it is Solution1used by other projects, and all of them are part of Source Control.

Just wondering, can I open both solutions in the same Visual Studio IDE? I searched a lot, but no luck. Suggest any pointer to an existing VS AddIn or how to develop it would also be helpful. Any help really appreciated.

What you ask for is impossible and extremely dysfunctional.

A supported solution will be to add all the projects from Solution B to Solution A. Then you can open one solution with all your work. If you want to make a comparison in your solution, you can use the folders with the solutions.

If you can have a separate solution for the main components and pack them as a nuget package. Both of your decisions may then depend on this single common package.

Create a third C solution than the project from A and B: you can save C as a local file, that is, you do not check it in version control if this can interfere with the team.
