Almost every browser includes an Incognito mode (also known as Private Windows). This feature keeps your browsing history hidden from other users on your device. However, this function does not work on Incognito or private windows in Brave.
In this gearupwindows article, you will learn to turn on/off extensions in Brave Incognito window in Windows 11 and 10.
What is Incognito or Private Browsing?
When you browse in Incognito (or private) mode, this feature hides your page visits and search history in your local browser on your device. So it is impossible for other users on your computer to see your browsing or search history person who also uses that same device. This way, Incognito mode helps users to hide information on a shared device as browsing history automatically gets deleted once you close the window.
