Like other browsers, Yandex Browser has a feature called incognito mode. What is this? This is a mode that allows the user to keep all their search engine queries and website visits secret. In this mode, the Internet browser does not save addresses of visited pages, passwords, or search queries. In this case, bookmarks and downloaded files are saved.

It is important to understand that incognito mode will not make you an invisible person who leaves no traces of your time on the Internet. No, this is just a mode that allows you not to save some data on your computer. If you visit a site in incognito mode, its owner will be able to find out about it, since data about user visits is stored in logs.

It is also important not to forget that in incognito mode all extensions are disabled by default, but you can always enable them yourself.

How to enable incognito mode in Yandex Browser?

There are two different ways to activate incognito mode.

The first of them is extremely simple - you need to press the key combination CTRL+SHIFT+N. After pressing these key combinations, the browser in incognito mode will open in a new window, and you will see the corresponding inscription:

The second method is suitable for those users who, for one reason or another, cannot use the first method.

At the top of the window there is a button with three stripes. Click on it, a menu will appear in which you need to select the “Advanced” item. Hover your mouse cursor over it and another menu will appear. In it you need to select the “New window in Incognito mode” option.

When you use the browser in this mode, you will see a corresponding icon at the top of the window.
