Hello,

I have formatted my computer 6 months ago and wanted to reinstall Firefox. But either I install it in standard configuration or advanced one, I can't have the Private Browsing option in the Options menu (Private life section). I only have the "never store history" option. How do I do to get back this Private Browsing option ? I had it previously with an older version of Firefox before formatting. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox trying to get this option back, but I can't. I want to have this private browsing option back to get rid of some addons needed without it to protect my privacy.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Reinstalling Firefox after having formatted my computer

To see other options on the Privacy panel, set "Firefox will:" to "Use custom settings for history". See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options+window+-+Privacy+panel#Use_custom_settings_for_history

As for the Private Browsing, if you are not the administrator on the computer (home or office), some menu items can be removed by the administrator.

If you choose "Never Remember History" then you enter Private Browsing mode. Outils -> Options -> Vie privée -> "Démarrer automatiquement Firefox en session de navigation privée"

Choose "utiliser les paramètres personnalisés pour l'historique" to see all History and Cookie settings.
