The use of Gmail accounts is now quite widespread, as almost everyone creates and owns their own account. The ease of creating Gmail accounts and their simple usage has led to an increasing number of Gmail users. Along with this, the security of each account is quite important, as every login request prompts you to save your password for future logins. However, many individuals dislike this feature due to concerns about unauthorized access. Therefore, today, Mytour will guide you on how to access Gmail without saving passwords on your computer, ensuring the safety of your account regardless of where you log in from.
Accessing Gmail Without Saving Passwords on Your Computer
Method 1: Accessing Gmail via private web browsing
Private web browsing has emerged in various forms since 2005, but it took some time for this feature to appear on browsers. Now, regardless of the web browser you're using, you can surf the web without leaving any traces such as browsing history, passwords, cookies, and other information on your computer.
Private browsing mode is highly useful for covering your tracks, or more accurately, preventing tracks from being created in the first place. Each browser has its own name for private browsing mode, and Tai Mien Phi will now show you how to enable private browsing mode on all popular browsers today.
1. Google Chrome: To browse privately on Chrome, follow the instructions below.
You can open an incognito window in Chrome by clicking on the special menu located in the top right corner of the browser window with the icon of 3 horizontal lines. Then, select New incognito window. Alternatively, you can press the Ctrl + Shift + N keys to browse incognito on Chrome more quickly.
The incognito mode is very recognizable when you just need to see the icon of a man wearing a hat in the top left corner of the browser.
2. Coc Coc: Similar to the Chrome browser, to open incognito mode in CocCoc, you can click on the CocCoc icon in the top left corner of the browser and select New incognito window, or press the Ctrl + Shift + N keys to quickly open incognito web browsing.
The incognito mode in CocCoc differs from Chrome in that the icon of the man wearing a hat is located on the right side of the browser.
3. Mozilla Firefox: Users refer to the incognito mode on Firefox simply as Private Browsing. Similar to Chrome, users can access incognito mode on Firefox from the menu in the top right corner. Just click on the option New Private Window or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + P to quickly open incognito mode on Firefox.
The incognito mode on Mozilla Firefox features a whimsical purple mask icon.
4. Microsoft Edge: Edge is Microsoft's new browser released alongside Windows 10. Similar to IE, Microsoft Edge still uses the name InPrivate to indicate when a private web browsing window is opened. To open a new InPrivate window, use the menu in the top right corner or press Ctrl + Shift + P on the keyboard.
When incognito mode is activated, the entire browser window will turn gray, and each tab will be labeled InPrivate at the top.
Method 2: Disable saving Gmail password suggestions on web browsers
By default, when users log in to Gmail on any web browser for the first time, a suggestion to save registration information will appear. This allows users to automatically log in to Gmail in subsequent times without additional account entry. However, in cases where you are using a computer in a crowded place such as an office, or do not want to save this information, the suggestion to save passwords is not really necessary. Below is how to disable Gmail password saving suggestions on popular web browsers today.
1. Google Chrome: On the Chrome browser, click on the three-dot icon in the top right corner of the browser and select Settings. Then, in the Settings interface, scroll down and select Advanced.
Scroll down to the Passwords and forms section and click on Manage passwords.
Here, you switch the toggle from On to Off to disable the suggestion to save Gmail passwords on the Chrome browser.
2. Coc Coc: Similar to Chrome, on the Coc Coc browser, click on the Coc Coc icon in the top left corner of the browser and select Settings (Cài đặt) > Privacy (Cá nhân) > scroll down to find Passwords and forms (Mật khẩu và biểu mẫu) and uncheck Offer to save your web passwords.
3. Mozilla Firefox: On the Firefox browser, click on the three horizontal lines icon in the top right corner of the browser, then select Options (Tùy chọn).
In the left-hand custom list, click on Security (Bảo mật) with the padlock icon, then look to the right interface, readers uncheck the option Remember logins for sites.
4. Microsoft Edge: In the Microsoft Edge web browser interface, click on the three-dot icon in the top right corner and select Settings. Then, click on View advanced settings at the bottom of the interface, and toggle the switch for Offer to save passwords to disable the suggestion to save passwords.
