UBlock Origin does work in incognito mode. Incognito mode, also known as private browsing, is a feature in web browsers that allows you to browse the internet without the browser saving your browsing history, cookies, or other data. It is a useful feature for maintaining privacy and for preventing websites from tracking your online activities.
When you use incognito mode, your browser typically disables all extensions by default. This is done to ensure that your browsing activity remains private and that extensions do not interfere with the intended functionality of incognito mode. However, you have the option to manually enable specific extensions in incognito mode if you wish.
To enable uBlock Origin in incognito mode, you can follow these steps:
1. Open Google Chrome and click on the menu button (three vertical dots in the top-right corner).
2. From the dropdown menu, click on “More tools” and then select “Extensions.”
3. You should now see a list of all the extensions installed in your browser. Look for uBlock Origin in the list.
4. Next to uBlock Origin, you’ll find a checkbox labeled “Allow in incognito.” Click on the checkbox to enable uBlock Origin for incognito mode.
Once you’ve enabled uBlock Origin for incognito mode, it will function just as it does in regular browsing mode. uBlock Origin is a popular ad-blocking extension that helps block unwanted ads, pop-ups, and other forms of online advertising. It also provides additional features such as the ability to block certain scripts, trackers, and malware domains. By using uBlock Origin in incognito mode, you can enhance your browsing experience and maintain privacy even when you’re in private browsing mode.
It’s worth noting that other ad-blocking extensions such as AdBlock and AdBlock Plus can also be enabled for incognito mode using a similar process. Just follow the steps mentioned above and enable the extensions by checking the “Allow in incognito” checkbox next to them.
In my personal experience, using uBlock Origin in incognito mode has been effective in blocking ads and improving the overall browsing experience. It not only helps to reduce distractions caused by intrusive ads but also enhances webpage loading times. It’s a great tool for anyone who values privacy and wants to have more control over their online experience.
UBlock Origin, along with other popular ad-blocking extensions like AdBlock and AdBlock Plus, can be enabled for incognito mode in Google Chrome. By enabling these extensions, you can enhance your browsing experience, block unwanted ads, and maintain privacy while using private browsing mode.
