This is regarding this review I left on Private Tab's page on Mozilla Add-on site.

In the review I mentioned that it is not working with Cyberfox v22. It was working perfectly earlier in the older versions of Cyberfox

[Background] Cyberfox is just a 64-bit version compiled from Firefox's 64 bit code. It also uses the same profile as Firefox. So, for Cyberfox to work, you need to Firefox installed.

I tried the things you mentioned in the follow-up comment on my review. I created a new profile and installed Private Tab. It works on the new profile and that means, on my regular profile some add-on is not compatible with Private Tab.

I have over 50 add-ons and I'm in the process of finding addons that are causing trouble.

You can create copy of your profile and then remove extensions from %profile%/extensions/ directory physically. Remove half, run browser and make tests to detect half with conflicting extension, then close browser repeat with "buggy" half. Also you can remove/rename prefs.js to test with default options.

Or may be probably easier to check output of the Error Console...

And I still don't understand, what "not working" means for you. E.g. you click on "File – New Private Tab" and what happens? Also you may try "Private Tab" checkbox in tab context menu, his implementation is easier, so it may works even if all other don't.

Whenever I click on "New Private Tab" or use Ctrl+Alt+P, a tab opens but it's just a "New Tab" and not a private tab. Earlier, the private tabs had an underline and worked as a private tab. Currently, it's just a regular tab and If I open Google, I am already logged-in.

I'll try the methods you've listed above and post the results soon.
