    Private Browsing


    Hello,
    Sometimes I get from Chrome browser a notice about private browsing, to install some add-on to the browser, as on attached screenshot.
    I am asking the experts, what is it, is it safe to install, should I install it ?
    Answers will be appreciated.
    Thanks


    :)

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused. I will assist you with this.

    I would suggest you to clear all the browsing history and check if the issue still persists.

    Please refer the link below to clear browsing history in Edge.

    Hi Motim

    Myself I would not install. If you want to browse privately in Chrome, click three dots upper right, then "New Incognito window" or just press CRTL+SHIFT+N

    If you don't want Google to track your searches use the search engine DuckDuckGo. I use it. It is a solid search engine. Every so often I do use Google for a few more results.
