Tip #661

Get straight to your Start Page by disabling the Private Window Introduction.

When it’s your first time using a Private Window in Vivaldi, it’s good to be educated about what it actually entails. In Vivaldi, browsing in a Private Window means that searches, sites visited, cookies, and temporary files won’t be stored by Vivaldi. It does not encrypt or otherwise modify your connection.

That’s why you’ll see an introduction whenever you open a new Private Window. If you regularly browse in Private Windows, this information is already known to you. That’s why you can hide it and display your preferred New Tab Page, such as Speed Dials or the Dashboard instead.

To hide the introduction:

Option 1

  1. Open a new Private Window.
  2. Tick the box “Do Not Show Introduction Again”.

Option 2

  1. Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Private Windows.
  2. Disable “Show Introduction”.
Vivaldi Browser's private window with the introduction page.
