  1. Update Google Chrome browser to latest BETA build, see instructions here.
  2. Right-click the Google Chrome shortcut and copy the full-string from Target textbox.
  3. Right-click on Desktop, Click New -> Shortcut
  4. Paste the copied link from first-step, appending --incognito as shown below and click Next.
  5. Google Chrome Incognito
  6. Type in a name of your choice for the shortcut, eg. "Incognito" and click Finish.
  7. Using this shortcut will launch Google Chrome Incognito mode for private web-browsing.
