Changes made in Incognito don't stick, option for this is gone (Chrome)

[stealsfromhobos]

Expected Behavior

Making changes to a script (editing/deleting) within an incognito session would be retained so long as the advanced security option "Store data in incognito mode" is set to "Permanent"

Actual Behavior

While in Incognito, editing/deleting a script, or changing options within a script revert to their previous state when I close the incognito window. Deleted scripts come back as well. They are only retained if done in a normal window. The option to allow this is gone, even when config is set to advanced mode.

Normally I could just make these changes in a normal session but it affects some scripts I like to use in incognito. For example the thread watcher feature in 4chanX doesn't function properly because of this.

I'm having same issue, does this comes from only latest version?

[stealsfromhobos]

For now the only solution is to switch to a different script manager. Violentmonkey seems to not have this issue.

I'm wondering if this might be a case of trying to increase security the Microsoft way, i.e. stripping away any features that could potentially be dangerous.
Maybe the feature will be re-implemented on a per-script basis or something.
