Chrome Incognito Mode Settings

Search Engine settings are per user in Chrome and shared with the incognito session.

A workaround is to add a different user profile and simply set the default search engine for that profile.

There is no way to change session from an incognito window, so, you first have to click on the top left hand icon and change users, then launch incognito:

I know this isn't ideal, but it does appear to work.

    I'd like to change my default search engine when in Incognito mode. Is there a way to do this? I checked in chrome://settings under Advanced and found a way to set my default search engine, but this setting applies to both regular and Incognito mode. I'd like to have two different values; one for regular, one for incognito.
