i suppose sideberry does not open by default on private windows, can that be fixed somehow to auto load?

  Just go to settings for the extension, and tick the box to allow it?

      OK, here goes. I'm on Linux; location of the settings menu may differ, depending on what you use. - Go to Tools menu, select "Add-Ons and Themes". You can also go to about:addons in the URL bar. - On that page, I have on the left: Recommendations, Extensions, Themes, Plugins. Choose Extensions. - You should be in a page that says, "Manage Your Extensions" near the top. Scroll down to find the one in question, Sidebery in this case. - To the right of the enable/disable toggle, there is an icon with three dots. - Click the three-dot icon, select "Manage". - One of the options is, "Run in Private Windows". Select "Allow". If I open a private window, Sidebery isn't open by default, but is available if the extension icon is clicked in the bar under the tabs, or I click Ctrl-e to toggle back and forth. Hope this helps!

        i have that. i know about that and that is not my question. what i am saying is, when i open a private window, sideberry does not auto start. I have to press ctrl-e to open it. then it can work as expected. in normal window (which i dont use) it persists across new windows so i am suspecting this is a bug

          Ah, OK. I would just hit ctrl-e and move on, but that's just me.
