    Hi

    Welcome to Microsoft community.

    To turn off the ad blocker in Microsoft Edge, you need to disable the tracking prevention feature. Here's how:

    1. Open Microsoft Edge.
    2. Click on the three horizontal dots in the upper-right corner of the browser window to open the menu.
    3. Click on "Settings".
    4. On the left side of the Settings page, click on "Privacy, search, and services".
    5. Scroll down until you see a section titled "Tracking prevention".
    6. You'll see three options: Basic, Balanced and Strict. If you want to turn off most ad blocking features without completely disabling tracking prevention, select "Basic". To completely disable it, toggle off "Use Tracking Prevention".

    Please note that if you have installed any third-party extensions like AdBlock or uBlock Origin in Edge browser, these steps won't disable those extensions.

    To disable third-party ad-blocking extensions:

    1. Click on three horizontal dots at top right corner of Edge browser.
    2. Go to Extensions.
    3. From here you can either toggle off your ad-blocker extension or click 'Remove' button to remove it entirely.

    Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates, thanks.

    Best regards

    I have removed my adblock extension and disabled tracking prevention both to no avail. Both Tubi and YouTube continue to say disable my adblock.

    I use Windows 10. (Purchased computer days before Windows 11 showed up and forbade my NEW computer to use it.) I have done the same things as Mr. Tub. But Adblock continues to plague me by constantly interrupting my daily visits to BluRay.com. I can refresh continually as I browse the site. But it pops up on news articles and will not go away and allow me to read the articles. WHY can't MSN come up with a way to fix this? The Adblock has actually been "removed" by me but is NOT "removed" from my computer. Help.
