  Private browsing mode is designed to keep not take of your browsing history. This allows users to browse the internet without their history to be saved on his computer. For this reason, you cannot restore a session that was made in private browsing mode, the session is permanently deleted from the closing of Firefox.

  If you want to have the ability to restore previous sessions, please use Firefox in normal browse mode.

  For more information on the incognito of Firefox, please read this Mozilla support article:

• Missing the "private browsing" button on the tab page there is no button "incognito" to the left of the button «+» iPhone 5, iOS 8.4, Firefox 1.2 (1206).

  Hello
  I have this problem since Firefox 1.1 for iOS. I've updated to version 1.2 (1206) but the problem persists.
  When I press the button "tabs count" on the upper right corner, the tabs preview screen with '+' button on the top right corner but THERE IS NOT button "incognito" on his left (it is only black box empty, do you need a screenshot?). Is this a bug or private browsing is not available yet for iOS?
  If the private browsing feature is implemented, how can I activate it?
  Thanks in advance!
  I hope that Firefox will become my favorite browser on iOS too! Keep up the good work!

  EDIT: misspelling.

• Private browsing mode does not work

  I've been without a pc for a while, now have a new with Windows 10. Just downloaded latest Firefox. I put it to always open in private browsing mode. But it does not work. When I close the browser, and then re - opening, my start page is not display the mask or indicate private browsing. I can get it in the usual way, just right-click on the icon that gives you options to open the new window or a private.
  I tried to turn on/off the navigation mode private the several times, still no luck.

  Probably, you won't see the purple mask of private browsing mode when you are in permanent PB mode because all windows are automatically in PB mode.
  You will see the mask when Firefox is started in normal mode and you open a new private window.

  You can use an extension for private browsing mode support tab.

  • Private tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/private-tab/
  • Private browsing mode tabs get a dotted underline
  • You can enable or disable private browsing mode / disable via the context menu of a tab

  2 tools > Options > privacy > history, click on the box "always use the private browsing mode.

  Do you have any advice?

• How can I get permanent Private Browsing, I want to save passwords?

  I tried several times to turn off private browsing which requires a reboot. After the reboot, private browsing is always engaged. What I want, it is to be able to save passwords from time to time and can't restore that work in private browsing.

  Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.
  The user.js file will be present if you or a other software created this file and normally will not present.

  You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
  The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

  You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

  Windows hides certain default file extensions.
  Among them .html and .txt, so you can see only a file name without .ini and .js file extension.
  You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.

• Where are stored the information session for "private browsing"?

  I have a frozen private browsing session that I don't want to lose.

  It's a bit complicated, so... I have a prior (not private) regular session which is restored when you open a regular browser. I have closed the session and opened directly into a private window. About two dozen open tabs later, the camera froze and I'm about to lose all the work I had done.

  I tried screenshot tabs so I could at least get an idea of what I had opened, but when I went to paste the Clipboard, he had nothing, and now the browser is minimized at all times (not answer).

  Is there a file in the profile folder containing the URLS of open tabs? I don't have FF forcequit immediately.

  I can't imagine that they would be in "sessionstore" since that holds the non-prive session (correct?) and it does not resemble these files have changed/summer changed since the opening of the private meeting. Wouldn't be a file of type "places" or "sessioncheckpoints"?

  All tracks on this would be greatly appreciated.

  I don't think you can get work if it is not registered to anywhere where you were. I suggest you do all the work in the sessions of navigation non-private, do not have this problem. If it's frozen, you can expect a response, or say goodbye to the work.

• There is no button disable or remove on addon disable Private Browsing more and I need to remove it.

  I tried to delete my browsing history, but when I do, I get a pop up saying that this feature is disabled. I can only assume it's because of the add-on disable Private Browsing Plus1.9.1 - signed I. For some strange reason, it's the Add on ONLY without Options, disable and remove buttons. How can I regain the ability to delete my browsing history?

  Open the Firefox Safe Mode and see if you can disable this extension from here.

• Private browsing issues: new window is a "pop-up" & right click on Favorites Displays grayed out options

  When I'm in the mode of private browsing in Firefox 38.0.1 for Windows 8.1, I can't do the following.

  1. when I click on a link to open a new window, the new window is like a pop-up window (no menus, no scroll bar). I have a blocked pop-up windows, it is like, but is not technically a pop-up window but it is not blocked.

  2. when I choose a bookmark and then right-click on it to choose another bookmark in a new window or new tab (or any other options that appear), the text is gray while I can't choose it.

  These "issues" are normal for Firefox 38.0.1?

  Hello Smokenguns,
  Thanks for asking! It seems that you use some custom settings for history and an option enabled lock you in a permanent private browsing mode. Here's what to do:
  Go to Menu > settings > privacy there, uncheck the box that says always "use Private Browsing Mode. See the screenshot if you can't find it.

  Have a great day!

  If you run Firefox in permanent private browsing mode (don't remember the story) then you will not get the purple mask because all open windows are automatically in PB mode.
