Safari 9: Impossible to disable private browsing

Hello! I really need help. I wanted to remove private on my 9 Safari browsing and I found a lot of posts, websites and discussions on the withdrawal of private browsing, and above all, that's what I found:

1. go to the folder applications in the Finder

2. right click (with a mighty mouse mouse or mouse button 2 buttons, or Ctrl + click to the mouse) on safari and choose "Show Package Contents".

3. navigate to the content, then resources, then English.lproj folder (or a respective folder for the language that you may have)

4. double click on MainMenu.nib in interface builder open

5. look at the window with the menu safari, click on Safari to expand it, and then click the private browsing menu item.

6. press the DELETE key and it disappears!

7. Press command + s for save, close the interface generator if you want and restart safari.

So, I followed the steps up to the 4th, while I noticed there is no MainMenu.nib in my English.lproj. So, with that, I couldn't do anything. I tried to open the other s MainMenu.nib French, German, etc., but all were just pictures and had no REAL content. I really need help with that. I was about to uninstall Safari, but as I use El Capitan I couldn't, I then noticed that on El Capitan, you can not remove Safari. Please do help me.

[NOTE] Most reason why I want to disable private browsing is any form of explicit results that is not suitable for certain ages. Until it came across my mind enables SafeSearch for private browsing, but because when you close a private window all cookies are removed, the SafeSearch option does not save (in which I wanted it). Based on this thread by Google: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#! subject, websearch, mJ-BUVoLA08

It says I can use SafeSearch on windows private if I enable cookies from third party. I couldn't find a way to do it, so if you are unable to resolve the first issue, please do help me with this one if you can.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

-Edward

    • How can I completely disable private browsing

      I would like to know how to completely disable incognito at least preference to withdraw all my Apple devices.

      No, you cannot remove it from Safari on ANY iOS device. If you do not turn it on in the browser, it does nothing. It's as good as it gets. You can try a third part of the browser, but frankly most of any decent browser will include this feature in one form or another.

      In Safari, tap the icon at the bottom right of your iPhone which shows 2 boxes stacked one on the other. After this tapping, tap private in the lower left corner. You can disable private browsing following these same steps.

    • 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.

      Hello!
      I installed Firefox 42.0 on my PC running Windows 7 SP1 32 bit and it is stable. But the purple mask, the novelty of the private browsing mode, does not work in the following scenarios. I don't see the purple mask on top of windows.

      1 right-click on the "Mozilla Firefox" shortcut, and then select Properties. Add ""-private "at the end of the area target;" \Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"- private.

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

      Do you have any advice?

      Best regards
      BluePencil

      You will see the purple mask if Firefox is in normal mode and you open a new private window.
      If you are in permanent private browsing mode, so there is no need to display the icon and it is deleted.

    • I can not turn off private browsing.

      I voluntarily put Firefox always open in mode incognito by right click > properties and adding-private until the end of the target. Then I caught a virus that made me decide to uninstall / reinstall firefox. Now it always opens in private mode, but I can't stop it. When I right click > properties - private is no longer there. When I go to the Tools tab private browsing options are grayed out. When I try ctrl + shift + p, nothing happens. How can I disable private browsing?

      I also disabled the history at some point, but I don't remember how I did it. I remembered that at the time. This could be what is causing the problem.
