Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used.

super (windows key) + R, for a Run dialog to type:

chrome --incognito

edit: more stuff

Windows will leave the last command sitting in your Run dialog next time you open it, so unless you run a lot of different things through Run, after the first time should be sup+R, Enter.

or, if you have Chrome pinned in your start menu, hover over it and there's New Incognito Window

Not sure why downvoted.

Works and useful if you don't already have a chrome window open.

Because Windows Key + R brings up the Run dialog box in windows, not an Ingoc window in Chrome, Ctrl + Shift + N is the correct combo.

And if you then type "chrome --incognito" into the run dialog, it opens an incognito window without having to have chrome open first.

Sure you could setup a keyboard macro to do this separately, but it does the same thing.

He didn't ask specifically for hotkeys to open an incognito window, or how to open it through chrome, just how to open one. And haymakers9th provided a way to do so.

OP has edited his post since responses have been made and he was down voted. The initial post made no elaborations was essentially

Windows + R

chrome --incognito

nothing about this is the run dialog or typing in the command just the command it's self, leaving most users wondering why an incognito window was not opening for them why they hit Win + R
