Lets go through quick instructions to know how to use Incognito Tab Switch.
- Go to this link and install the extension. This link will take you to Chrome Web Store page.
- After installing, you'll see a new spy button appears on your Chrome Toolbar. This button will allow you to switch between the two modes.
- To switch the tab you're currently browsing to Incognito Mode, click this (spy) button, and Incognito Tab Switch will extract (or move) this tab to a new incognito window.
- If you want to switch more tabs to incognito mode, keep clicking the spy button on each tab and the tabs will be added to the same incognito window.
When you're on a incognito window, than the spy button will turn dark. To switch the tab again to normal mode, click on the dark spy button, and the extension will extract/move the incognito tab to the normal mode on its correct position.
But, Chrome automatically disables all the extensions when you switch to incognito mode. It means you'll not be able to switch that tab again to the normal mode easily. Don't worry! You can allow this extension to work in incognito from Extensions Manager. To allow this extension to work properly, you can allow permission to work in incognito mode by following the steps explained below.
- Go to settings > Extensions.

- Check (or click) allow in incognito.
After allowing the extension on Incognito mode, it will work properly, and you can switch normal & private window easily in one click of a button. This extension currently only switch the normal tab to incognito and vice versa, but it will not remove the webpage from history which you're previously browsing in the normal mode.
