var success = await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(uri),
I can use this to open an external browser in Normal mode.
Is there any way to open Edge or any external Browser in Incognito mode from my UWP app?

I say currently as such things have changed in the past, and may change in the future!
