<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nTo open Google Chrome in incognito mode in default, we need to create a shortcut and a command line. You don’t need to worry about how to do that because below, we have detailed all steps you need to follow to open Chrome in Incognito mode by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: <\/strong>Create a desktop shortcut for Chrome<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 2: <\/strong>Right-click on the Chrome shortcut and select Properties<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 3:<\/strong> From the new window that appears, select the Shortcut tab<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 4: <\/strong>Under the Shortcut tab, you will see a target dialogue box; click on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 5:<\/strong> At the end of the target box, add a space and enter the following code: “–incognito<\/strong>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 6:<\/strong> After entering the code, click on Apply<\/strong> and then OK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> If you have multiple chrome shortcuts on your desktop, you can rename this shortcut to keep them apart. Keep in mind that Chrome will only open in incognito mode through the particular shortcut that was assigned with the code. If you want to stop opening Google Chrome in Incognito mode, you can delete the shortcut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Method 2- Using Registry Editor<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nIf you didn’t like the Shortcut method since it is only limited to a particular shortcut that you assign and want Google Chrome to always open in Incognito mode, then follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: <\/strong>Open Registry Editor <\/strong>(you can find Registry editor by searching through the search bar near the start Button).<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 2:<\/strong> Click on the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 3: <\/strong>From here, click on SOFTWARE.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 4:<\/strong> Navigate to Policies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 5:<\/strong> Here, find the folder called Google<\/strong>. If you don’t find the folder, create a new folder by right-clicking on Policies <\/strong>and selecting New <\/strong>> Key<\/strong>. Name the new Key as Google<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 6: <\/strong>Select the Chrome Folder and right-click anywhere on the right-hand pane. Select New <\/strong>and then DWORD (32 bit) Value<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 7:<\/strong> Rename this new value as IncognitoModeAvailability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 8:<\/strong> After creating the new value, double click on it<\/strong>, where it displays a new window.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 9:<\/strong> Here, change the value in the dialogue box of Value data <\/strong>to 2 <\/strong>from 0<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> While we have mentioned this method, it is best to follow the previous method discussed here to open Incognito mode in Google Chrome by default in your Windows machine as this method may not be working for some users. Also, make sure to backup your registry before making any changes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
