Chrome disabling all adblock plugins periodically???

Post by KingstonCole »

I'm using Adblock, Adblock Plus, and Adblock for Youtube, mostly watching youtube videos. I've noticed that sometimes the plugins will get disabled and have to be re-enabled, I notice it because youtube suddenly displays an ad. I'm wondering if Google is now directly attacking the blockers at the extension level ?

Hi @Kingstoncole I'm not able to reproduce this issue on my end however, I have seen similar complaints. Does the issue persist in a new Chrome profile? Or a fresh install of Chrome? We look forward to your follow up!

Thanks

Yeah, I use AB for Youtube videos too. I have the same problems with my plugins sometimes. Maybe I should re-install Chrome?

Hi, I had a similar problem a couple of days ago and I noticed that I recently did a fresh install of Chrome.. Does this have something to do with the issue?
Thankful for any helpful advice
