Review by Vítor Avelino

I miss this feature in Firefox for so long. Damn! I'm so happy that I found this.

Thank you for creating this! <3

Is the code available somewhere?

I'd like to improve (change to myself honestly) to not show the title of the current chosen private window tab in the menu when it has a single private window. It can make the menu really large and annoys me.

A fixed "Open Link in Current Private Window" for this specific scenario would be perfect.

    Appears to have been abandoned and the core functionality no longer works. The best similar extenstions I've found are "Open Incognito" and "Temporary Containers".

    Hi, I'm the author of this add-on. It is for sure not abandoned. I was surprised to read that it doesn't work for you, as I'm using it every day. Can it be that you didn't allow the add-on to run in Private windows? Unfortunately this is necessary to be able to list private windows and open new private windows. I've just submitted a new version (1.4), which displays instructions how to allow the add-on to run in private windows. Unfortunately - according to my knowledge - this permission can't be requested programmatically.

    Works great and is very simple to use, if only Firefox added this feature as a default

    Great add-on for a 2-monitor setup. Is it possible to make this add-on open search engine's links in a new window in the next monitor with a left-click without needing to access the context menu?
