Key notes
Both Netflix and the InPrivate browsing mode are great. However, these two don’t make such a good team.
Many users complained that they can’t watch their favorite showswhile going incognito.
This is a delicate issue because privacy is crucial for many people.
One userreportedthe following on the Reddit forum:
What added the my frustration is that they let me use incognito to log in, browse and select something to watch. Only after I was finally excited to watch something did they block me….
So, the OP complained that he can access the account and choose the show. Only after that, this error appears.
What’s worse is that the error appears on many browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
Fortunately, there are solutions to this problem.
Netflix error while going incognito? Here’s how to fix that!
1. Close all browsers
Closing all your browsers (including the one with the Netflix error) might solve the issue. Then, open the browser again and try to watch Netflix.
2. Check for available storage
3. Clear browsing data
In Chrome, you can delete your browsing data following these easy steps:
In other browsers, such as Firefox or Microsoft Edge, the steps are somewhat similar.
4. Use Opera to open Netflix
If the issue seems to persist, we suggest you switch up your browser. When it comes to streaming platforms, Opera is your best bet because it is light and has great speed rates.
On top of that, Opera can also help you access geo-restricted content. It has a built-in VPN that you can turn on and off in just one click. Select your location of choice and access shows all across the globe.
Other features that make Opera our top recommendation are its anti-tracking shield and adblocker. Plus, you can customize it to your liking and access all your favorite apps and platforms directly from the browser, without needing to switch between apps.
⇒Get Opera
Conclusion
So, you can have both: privacy on the Internet and a great Netflix experience. Just try our easy solutions and while you’re at it, install UR Browser to surf the Internet safely and without issues such as the Netflix InPrivate browsing error.
