How to enable private browsing ?
Private browsing means whatever we have searched through browser will not show in our search result and when we download something it will also not show in download history. When you turn on the Private Browsing or “Incognito” mode in your browser, it makes sure that there is absolutely no record of your browsing on the computer i.e. no history searches, no cookies, no downloaded items. All of them are deleted as soon as you close the browser.
When you are using the internet on a cyber cafe or a friend’s computer, the computer stores all the data related to your internet usage in the form of cookies etc. At such times, private browsing would help you complete your work securely but also it will make sure unnecessary information does not reach the unintended user.
How to turn on the private browsing through Internet Explorer:
• Open internet Explore.
• Click on the “Safety” menu.
