What Is Incognito Mode?
Incognito Mode is a brand-new privacy feature in Nero DVD Player that allows you to:
🔒 Watch videos without saving playback history
📂 Prevent resume data and timestamps from being recorded
🗑️ Avoid generating any temporary cache files
✅ Enjoy a truly private viewing session — every time
Just like private browsing in your web browser, nothing gets saved.
How to Turn on Incognito Mode
Here’s how to activate Incognito Mode in just a few seconds:
Open Nero DVD Player
Navigate to the top menu and click Options
In the dropdown list, select Incognito Mode > On
You’ll instantly see a banner that confirms:
“Now, watch freely! Nothing gets saved — no cache files, no history, no resume points. It’s your secret!”
Start playing your DVD or media file as usual
When done, simply close the player or turn Incognito Mode Off from the same menu
That’s it. No watch history, no resume playback data, no footprints left behind.
How It Compares to Other Modes
Mode | Saves History | Resume Playback | Secure Folder | Password Required |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Default Mode | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ❌ No |
Video Vault Mode | 🔒 Private | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |

Incognito Mode is ideal for quick, private viewing when you don’t want to store anything at all — not even in a vault.
