Is any way to open that URL in incognit

Answer 1

I wrote this and it successfull:

Process.Start(@"chrome.exe", "--incognito http://domain.com");

Answer 2

For anyone using the Brave browser, the solution is very similar to Dan's answer, just with the brave.exe path (note that for Brave, the exe is not located in %LocalAppData%).

var url = "http://www.google.com";

using (var process = new Process())
{
    process.StartInfo.FileName = @"C:\Program Files (x86)\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\Application\brave.exe";
    process.StartInfo.Arguments = url + " --incognito";

    process.Start();
}

Answer 3

The path to chrome.exe has changed, or at least i think there is a different between x32 and x64. C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

Answer 4

You'll need to create a process with a path to Chrome's exe file, and use the argument --incognito.

The path to chrome in windows is typically:

C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\chrome.exe

Use the following code:

var url = "http://www.google.com";

using (var process = new Process())
{
    process.StartInfo.FileName = @"C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\chrome.exe";
    process.StartInfo.Arguments = url + " --incognito";

    process.Start();
}
