While using the Incognito Mode, Google chrome disable cookies, extensions and also history function. For now, we’re not sure why this feature is exclusive to Windows, instead of also arriving on Mac and Linux.Īs this feature is still early in development and Chrome 86 is less than a month from reaching Beta, we expect that Chrome’s new Incognito desktop shortcut will probably not arrive until Chrome 87, due to release sometime in November.The Incognito Mode is a private browsing feature that was long supported by Google Chrome. This comes from a pair of Chromium code changes, one of which adds a new flag to chrome://flags.Įnables users to create a desktop shortcut for incognito mode.ĭigging a bit deeper, we find that this flag will add a new “ Create Shortcut” option to Incognito Mode’s profile menu, just as Chrome for Windows already allows each profile to create a desktop shortcut. Now it seems Google is preparing a newer, handier way to open Chrome’s Incognito Mode, exclusive to Windows, by allowing you to create a desktop shortcut that opens directly to Incognito. Whatever you use Incognito Mode for, the current best way to open an Incognito window is to first open Chrome, then use the Ctrl-Shift-N shortcut or the “New Incognito window” menu option. Incognito Mode in Google Chrome has more than its fair share of uses, be it hiding certain web pages from your history, bypassing paywalls from larger news sites, or just wanting to do a search without it appearing in your Google Search history. The Windows version of Google Chrome is preparing to add a desktop shortcut to open directly into an Incognito window, perfect for whatever you use Incognito Mode for.
