But, by default, Firefox turns off extensions while browsing privately to prevent them from leaking data. If you\u2019d like to use a trusted extension while browsing privately, it\u2019s easy to turn it on. Here\u2019s how.<\/p>\n<p>First, open \u201cFirefox.\u201d In any window, click the \u201cFirefox\u201d menu button (three horizontal lines) and select \u201cAdd-ons\u201d from the menu.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-702112\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/xfirefox_select_addons.jpg.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.hH7Rkw3Td8.jpg\" alt=\"In Firefox, click the hamburger menu and select &quot;Add-ons.&quot;\" width=\"650\" height=\"468\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In a new tab called \u201cAdd-ons Manager,\u201d you will see a list of all the Firefox extensions you have installed. Locate the extension you\u2019d like to use in Private mode and click the ellipses button (three dots) beside it. In the menu that pops up, select \u201cManage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-702181\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/firefox_manage_extension.jpg.pagespeed.ce.wXjQwsLlib.jpg\" alt=\"In Firefox Add-ons Manager, click the ellipses button and select &quot;Manage.&quot;\" width=\"650\" height=\"228\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>After clicking \u201cManage,\u201d you\u2019ll see more details about the extension on a special page. Scroll down and locate the \u201cRun in Private Windows\u201d option. Click the radio button beside \u201cAllow\u201d to enable the extension in Private browsing mode.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"admonishment_warning\"><p><strong>Warning:<\/strong> Each extension you enable while private browsing will have access to your browsing data, which means the extension could capture that data and potentially share that data with a third party.

When you\u2019re done, close the \u201cAdd-ons Manager\u201d tab.<\/p>\n<p>The next time you open a Private window in Firefox, the extensions you enabled will be working as you\u2019d expect them.<\/p>\n<p>If you ever need to disable an extension in Private mode again, revisit the extension\u2019s \u201cManage\u201d page in the \u201cAdd-ons Manager\u201d and select \u201cDon\u2019t Allow\u201d beside the \u201cRun in Private Windows\u201d option.
