Adblock Plus not starting when InPrivate Browsing

Post by BoTo »

Subject pretty much explains it, Adblock Plus doesn't start when in InPrivate Browsing.

For some of you curious, starting Internet Explorer 10 InPrivate Browsing automatically by right clicking the Internet Explorer icon in taskbar, right clicking again "Internet Explorer" at the bottom and then Choose properties. Put this in target "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -private and click Apply.

Internet Explore will now start in InPrivate Browsing whenever you open Internet Explorer since there isn't an option in Internet Explorer settings to do it automatically.

That's because IE blocks all extensions from running when InPrivate mode is on.

To change that setting:
  • Open Internet options
  • Click the tab Privacy
  • Uncheck the last checkbox "Disable toolbars and extensions when InPrivate browsing starts"
