In private browsing window, when we add new tab, I want it to open only in private browsing mode, but it doesn't. It opens in 'non-private browsing' mode.
Since the latest Firefox software update (75.0) in April 2020 on my Windows 10 (64 bit) computer, I am not able to add new Tabs in private browsing mode. Each time I open a new Tab, it appears in 'non-private browsing mode'. In options, I have even selected 'always open new tabs in private browsing mode' but it is not helping. As I am not able to add new Tabs in private browsing mode, each time I have to open new Windows in private browsing mode, but it is very inconvenient to have several windows (instead of several tabs).

Hello Savvy Canadian,
Maybe a dumb question, but could it be that you think those tabs are not in private browsing mode because you don't see a purple mask ?
That is : I'm assuming that you are in permanent private browsing mode ?
In permanent private browsing mode you won't see that purple mask ....
Maybe this article will help :
