        "content": "To launch the Brave browser directly into a private (incognito) window via the command line, use the `--incognito` flag.  \n\nHere\u2019s how it works depending on your operating system:\n\n---\n\n### Windows\n\nRun Brave with the `--incognito` switch. For example:\n\n```\n\"C:\\Program Files\\BraveSoftware\\Brave-Browser\\Application\\brave.exe\" --incognito\n```\n\nIf you're modifying a desktop shortcut, right-click the shortcut \u2192 Properties, then add `--incognito` after the path in the **Target** field. Make sure there\u2019s a space before `--incognito`. ([support.brave.com](https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044860011-How-Do-I-Use-Command-Line-Flags-in-Brave?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### macOS\n\nUse the `open` command with `--args` to pass Brave the `--incognito` flag:\n\n```\nopen -a \"Brave Browser.app\" --args --incognito\n```\n\nIf you want to force a new window instance, you can also include `-n`:\n\n```\nopen -a \"Brave Browser.app\" -n --args --incognito\n```\n\nThe `-n` tells `open` to launch a new instance of the app. ([support.brave.com](https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044860011-How-Do-I-Use-Command-Line-Flags-in-Brave?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### Linux\n\nAssuming Brave is in your path as `brave-browser` (or `brave` depending on distro), use:\n\n```\nbrave-browser --incognito\n```\n\nOr substitute `brave` if that's the executable\u2019s name on your system. ([support.brave.com](https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044860011-How-Do-I-Use-Command-Line-Flags-in-Brave?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you want to launch Brave with Tor (i.e. \u201cPrivate Window with Tor\u201d), currently there is no solid, official command-line support for combining `--tor` with startup through a switch; some users have reported inconsistent behavior. ([community.brave.com](https://community.brave.com/t/does-anyone-know-how-to-open-a-new-private-tor-window-from-the-command-line-in-windows/37121?utm_source=openai))\n\nLet me know if you need the exact command for your specific operating system or version!"
