Does the extension also work in incognito windows?

The setting below is required for Myndr to work properly!

No. On a Chromebook or a Windows laptop, it isn't possible to centrally enable an extension by default in incognito or InPrivate windows. That can only be done on the computer itself. (And it can be switched off again there too.)

What is possible is to centrally disable the option to open incognito windows.

1. You can do this in the Google Admin console under Devices > Chrome > Settings > Incognito mode at organisational unit level. So for example for all students or for certain classes. 2. Select the organisational unit you want and set the Incognito mode setting to Disallow incognito mode. 3. Click SAVE in the top right. Incognito windows can no longer be opened now.For Windows computers, you'll find a step-by-step guide to making these settings here.
