What is the Guest Mode in Chrome?

The Guest Mode in Chrome browser is a feature that allows users to temporarily use the browser without creating a profile. It lets you browse through the web without saving any record of the browsing history and disables all extensions that may collect information. Also, closing the window immediately ends the Guest mode session and erases all traces of the guest user’s browsing. Furthermore, the user can’t make any changes in the Chrome settings. The only available change option Guest users are allowed to make is the default search engine. Chrome doesn’t trust the user since there’s no credible account information logged in. Also, browsing history, bookmarks, or downloads from the main Chrome profiles are not accessible. However, Guest networks tend to be targeted by hackers. It is because the networks are often poorly secured. Also, it creates a path in the primary network while bypassing software-based security solutions. Hence, it can be a security threat to the main user profile, exposing it to the risk of data loss.
