Private browsing means a browsing session where no record of the browsing session is kept. The websites visited, the interaction with those websites, the password or the usernames, the form fill up data, the cookies and the cache, all are deleted securely when private browsing is turned on. The only question, then, is, how to turn on private browsing.
Frankly, there are two major browsers in the market now, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome and both of them support private browsing out of the box. Let’s discuss the steps you need to take in both the browsers to turn it on.
Mozilla Firefox: You can click on the File menu and the third option there is “New Private Window”. Click on that and you are done. Alternatively, click on the three horizontal lines near the top right corner of the browser and you can find the option there as well. If you want, you can also open Firefox and press Control, Shift and P keys together to open a private window.
Google Chrome: Open Google Chrome and click on the three vertical dots near the top right corner of the browser. You will see an option called New Incognito Window which is what private browsing is called in Chrome. Click on that and you are done. You can also launch a private window after opening Chrome by pressing Control, Shift and N keys together.
Remember, once you c lose the private window, you are back to normal browsing where you history, cache and cookies are saved.
