ABP not blocking ads in inPrivate mode

Post by twil01 »

Just installed WIN10 anniversary update and downloaded/installed ABP for edge (version 0.9.6.0).

While all works fine in normal browser mode, ABP does not seem to block ads in inPrivate mode.

I am not sure this is a bug, or whether MS simply does not (yet hopefully) enable extensions in inPrivate mode.

Edge doesn't currently support extension use in InPrivate. However, this is a feature that I would love to see in Windows 10's next update. You can suggest your ideas to the Edge team through the Feedback Hub app on your computer.

I'm thinking it's similar to Chrome's default behavior of not allowing extensions in Incognito Mode, although Chrome at least allows overriding this extension-by-extension.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.
