Comment #26 on issue 16072 by dannScripts: Downloads in incognito mode don't show in Downloads page http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16072
***Comment 5 by [email protected], Jul 16, 2009*** "This is a blurry area. If we made incognito downloads show up on the incognito downloads page, then we'd have to blend them with the real downloads. This would then mismatch with History, where incognito history just isn't visible ever".** How exactly is this a blurry area? Prior to the upgrade, if you were downloading in "incognito mode", and clicked "show all downloads", it would open the downloads page with all downloads in progress, INCLUDING the ones currently happening thru incognito mode. Once you closed or X'd the incognito window/session (and downloads window), if you then opened a new window, or downloads window, it would only show downloads that took place thru the NON incognito window, and not the incognito session (automatically deleted them, or didn't record them). This worked perfectly! I do not think it is a "bug" for the upgrade, but rather they just removed it for some reason which makes no sense. Plain and simple...if now, all you get in incognito mode, are the downloads in the "downloads bar" at the bottom of the screen (which only holds/shows you 5 maximum), well how are you supposed to know what is going on if you are currently making 10 downloads (or more) in an incognito session? Are the first 5 out of 10 done? Well, you just don't know! I guess you'll know/judge, when your computer comes to a crawl or crashes. I seriously regret upgrading last week because of this, should have kept the previous version of Chrome.
