Ad Blockers stopped working but 'ON' in 'Manage Extensions

Post by Energise »

Windows 10 v 2OH2 (19042.1237)
Firefox 92.0.1

AdBlocker Ultimate
Ghostery
uBlock Origin

Firefox updated last night. This morning, adverts are showing on many sites, where I've not seen them before
I don't seem to get the ads in Edge (but don't use Edge in general)

Is this likely to be to do with this latest update, please?

How can I recify this issue, please?

Thanks

Hi,
It's more than likely that your similar multiple extensions are conflicting.

Why not just use uBlock Origin?

T'is a much better extension.

(Always choose the "Custom" Install.)

I don't know ;) They just seemed to have got lonely, I suppose LOL

I'll try that and hopefully I won't be subjected to all the ads anymore

I'll post back if doesn't make a difference. Thanks very much
