Chrome Incognito mode missing from Context Menu?

[slipd]

The option is suddenly not there

Or is this a recent update, that nobody actually asked for...

Any ideas?

Mine did the same, but I think it reappeared after a full reboot.... I would need to check though.... I normally use Firefox.

Nope, mines been like this for a week now. Odd.

Right click the Chrome part of that context menu and it should be there

That's what I'm doing in my first post - the option appears to have just vanished?

Any ideas?

that's because you disabled windows jumplists before creating the taskbar icon

to resolve the issue:
1) re-enable windows jumplists

1. Enter the Settings app from the Start menu.
2. Click the Personalization symbol.
3. In the left column, proceed to the second last option. Click Start.
4. On the right pane, Start features a few options. Focus on the last one,
   Show recently opened items in Jump Lists on Start or Taskbar.
5. Toggle it to On.
6. Right-click on an opened program on Taskbar to check if the jump lists now appear.

2) delete your current taskbar chrome shortcut
3) reboot
4) make a new chrome shortcut - the extra menus should now show
5) disable jumplists if you want to again

Thanks, tried that, still the same... oddly, removing the current shortcut and replacing it with a new one has things working for a while but then it just stops again. It's weird its only just started happening.

All my other browsers are fine

It's down to a Windows update apparently...

I unpinned then repinned it and it was fixed.

For me, that works for a while, sometimes until the next reboot, but then I'm back to square one...
