In Private - Taskbar Icon change

The icon/display of In Private window(s) needs to have a completely different icon/display to a normal Edge window. I have In Private sessions open many times a day along with Edge running all day long. It is hard to identify which are the In Private sessions along the taskbar without hovering over the Windows and seeing the preview of the page(s) i have open.

    4 years later, does anyone know if this is a thing yet? I really want to just have the one browser installed to keep security maintenance to a minimum, but it's really annoying having the InPrivate Windows look the same as other Edge windows on the taskbar. It's almost enough to warrant an additional browser just to overcome that annoyance.

    This would be a nice feature, especially if you have multiple new windows open.

     

    We appreciate the feature request and will look into it.

     

    Thanks,

      Greetings!!  How is this request coming along?  Firefox has had it for quite a while now.
