extensions are disabled in firefox's private browsing?

I recently spent Firefox to chrome, because it gives the unique password manager.

But unlike chrome or ie9, it gives no information on extensions,
While inprivate browsing.

before I use it as my main browser, I want to assure you, that extensions are disabled in private browsing
my request is as simple as
extensions are disabled in firefox's private browsing?

No, the extension are not disabled if you run Firefox in private browsing mode.

A few extensions and plugins detect private browsing mode (Firefox notifies them) and can act differently, but it is the developer of the extension.

The only thing that Firefox (addons not included!) PB mode does not save session on the disc data.

    Hello. When I download something in private browsing mode, I understand that it does not appear in the download window.
    How to cancel a download without closing the private window?
    I don't want to close all the windows because I have several tabs open and it will be really bulky to close all tabs and trying to open all again just so that I can cancel a download.

    Details of my system is as follows.

    Name Firefox
    Version 24.7.0
    User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0

    Thank you.

    You can perform the same operations for downloads in navigation mode as in your regular browser window. There are no pop-up downloads, but should open a separate tab for downloads in private browsing. Alternatively, while in a private window, you can enter topic: download to your address bar, and it should show you your downloads that are spend in your private browsing windows.

    On another note, is there a reason why you are using Firefox version 24? The current version of Firefox is 32.0.2

    Instead of having the sidebar on the left, I have the sidebar on the right and a big empty space where the text should be. The text is moved to the bottom of the empty space for me. I tried the cookies/cache forces the reload and total emptying, and I am sure that no change of format for manual Web site have been brought.

  • Lack of options "Enter private browsing" "open a new tab" and "Open a new fenΩtre" when click right firefox icon in taskbar

    I just reinstalled Windows 7 64-bit(for other purposes) and of course downloaded firefox 21.0 as soon as I could, but found that it is not all options as there were once (before the reinstall) when I right click the icon in the task bar firefox ("Enter private browsing," "open new tab" etc..).

    As in this same question posted here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/943198?esab=a & as = aaq

    I checked the Userchrome.css file and does not exist. In the properties of the start menu "store and view these options... '. ' has been verified (unchecked and recontroler). Also mucked the subject: config with specific options mentioned in the link above and nothing (all are now by default). I don't know if some extensions can cause problems with this, but I currently have stumbleupon and Personas Plus, NoScript, AdBlockPlus (which if I'm not mistaken were all on before reinstalling windows). Even just reinstalled firefox just on the off chance that he can fix it, but unfortunately it didn't.

    It seems to be fixed, I guess that since the last update. I've updated a day or two ago, I forgot to check for it, but it's working now.

  • How will I know when I'm in a private browsing session - Firefox 35.0.1

    When I opened a window of Firefox v 35.0.1 incognito, he has no indicators that I'm actually in a browser window privacy. In my previous version of Firefox, if you use the command 'New private window', a new pop window opens in the body: "Private You are currently browsing mode", or something to that effect. He also displayed a purple mask at the top right of the window near the maximize/minimize/close icons.

    Now, when I try to open a private 35 FF window, it opens a window which seems identical to the standard FireFox window, with nothing to indicate that I am browsing in private mode. What is going on?

    I've attached a screenshot of the top of my browser window while supposedly in a private window.

    If you start Firefox in private browsing mode, using always to use the private browsing mode that can be set in the Options > privacy-> Firefox will: use the custom settings for history - you'd be using the Permanent private browsing mode.

    The the 'mask' ' or private message at the top of the Firefox window is not displayed, and menu items, and keyboard commands will open another private window. You cannot leave the 'private' mode without closing Firefox and unchecking the "always use...". "preferably, before you open Firefox again.

  • Private browsing on right context menu on the shortcut icon of Mozilla's Firefox on MS Win XP

    I am already aware that the Mozilla Firefox browser has the ability to always start Firefox in private browsing mode by putting the brand into its Options on...

    However, I noticed that on MS Win 7 OS, we can run Mozilla Firefox browser directly, by clicking on the right click (context menu right) on Mozilla's Firefox shortcut icon (for example in Windows taskbar and Start Menu) and here are the options available immediately: 'Enter private browsing', 'New tab' and 'open a new fenΩtre '.

    Now, my question is, can I do something that has the same options (or at least 'option to Enter private browsing), is also available on that even just before the track described as on MS Win 7 OS, but the MS Win XP operating system also?

    Thank you in advance for help!
    Best regards!

    Bruno.H.

    When you set ever "remember history" in the privacy options, this has the same effect that running firefox in private browsing mode - this is why there is not more icon signals the difference because it wouldn't make sense.
