[HowTo] Create desktop shortcut to always start Chrome in Incognito mode

In one of our previous tutorials, we explained about creating a desktop shortcut to start Firefox in Private Browsing Mode, In this tutorial , We will explain how you can do the same for Google Chrome

Incognito mode in Chrome allows you to browse Internet without having to save any browsing data such as
Passwords
Cookies
Browsing History
Caching of images and other media data
Form Data
All the data are cleared automatically when you close the Chrome window.

First, Let us create a shortcut to Google Chrome, We will rename it to “Chrome-incognito”

Right click on the newly created shortcut , navigate to properties

The target attribute looks something like this

“C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe”

Modify the Target , as quoted below

“C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” -incognito

Your shortcut should look like this.

That is all, now you can access Chrome permanently in Incognito mode by double clicking on the shortcut !
