Start Google Chrome directly in incognito mode

If you are impressed with the incognito mode in Google Chrome , you can directly make Chrome start in incognito mode instead of manually selecting incognito window.

About incognito window:


Pages you view in this window won't appear in your browser history or search history, and they won't leave other traces, like cookies, on your computer after you close the incognito window. Any files you download or bookmarks you create will be preserved, however.

Going incognito doesn't affect the behavior of other people, servers, or software. Be wary of:
Websites that collect or share information about you
Internet service providers or employers that track the pages you visit
Malicious software that tracks your keystrokes in exchange for free smileys
Surveillance by secret agents
People standing behind you


Here is how you do it:

1. Right click your Chrome icon on the desktop.

2. Select properties

It will show the path of chrome.exe

E.g: c:\users\.....\chrome.exe

3. Now just add /incognito after chrome.exe in the link

i.e.: d:\users\.....\chrome.exe / incognito

Now whenever you click the Chrome link, Chrome will start directly in incognito mode.
