Google Chrome AdBlock, which is a built-in feature, lets you enable and disable forced ads. And you probably want to know how to find it in its settings menu.
You also have to remember that Google has its own terms to consider any ad as malware, spyware, or unwanted ads.
Two ways to block ads on Google Chrome
There were some websites mainly informative and webmaster’s sites, where they asked to support by enabling AdBlocker.
- Google Chrome AdBlock
- Disable Adblock on the plugin
1: Built-in feature (Google AdBlock)
Well, Chrome AdBlock is a simple idea to block ads on websites by Google. It is not recognized/named as “adblocker” or “Chrome AdBlock” but two different terms are used, “Popup ads” and “Ads”. So you have to disable these.
How to enable/disable Chrome Adblock?
- First, go to “settings” by clicking on the three dots that appear on the top right corner of the Chrome browser.
- Now, scroll down and click “Advanced“.
- Under “Privacy and Settings“.
- Find “Site Settings“.
- Under “Site Settings” you will see “Popups” and just below “Ads“.
There you have to click on “Ads” to allow or disallow ads.
The below video will show you the steps
2: Chrome plugins for Adblock
Now many people struggle with this and come up with no result. If you still see the message “Please support us by enabling adblocker” or similar to this even after disabling the Chrome Adblock, look for plugins.
The plugins do not necessarily have the same term for adblocking. It may be a different plugin and uses tracking and AdBlock settings.
In my case, I have an Avira browser safety plugin for website safety whenever I visit the site through search engines. And it does use adblocker which I have not noticed earlier. Because of this, I have the same message requesting enabling the ads to support their free information site.
