1. Uninstall ABP, right-click on the ABP Icon > Manage > "Uninstall" Button
2. Clear your cache and cookies via Settings > Choose what to clear, then close your browser.
3. Reinstall ABP, close your browser and check if the notification appears.
Whilst clearing Cache data and files is fine for most users, for some users clearing Cookies and saved website data is not possible, without losing vital website data.

So, please can you provide instructions for manually removing the offending Adblock Plus cookies, data and files, which appear to be causing this problem.

So, over 7 months since the first report (in this thread at least) of this error, for me this error just popped up a day or 2 ago..

As mville pointed out, i can not and do not want to clear out my cache and history etc because of functionality on other sites.

Its a very annoying bug though, because all stored tabs are gone too o.O and that downright pisses me off because i used those very frequently. Somehow i can't seem to find them in my favorites, perhaps because i was too lazy to bookmark them too, thought they were safe in my stored tabs -.-

Can we get a fix pls?

[quote="mville"][quote="sbell"]Thanks for bringing this to our attention! The latest update should have resolved this issue but apparently that doesn't seem to be true in many cases. We are digging into this to figure out a resolution. Can you confirm what Edge versions you are using if you haven't done so already? Also are you using ABP 09.12? This will help us out a ton. We hope to have things sorted ASAP.[/quote]
Windows 10 Pro version 1803 build 17134.523
Microsoft Edge 42.17134.1.0
AdBlock Plus version 0.9.12[/quote]

I am also getting this EXTREMELY ANNOYING problem!

Please could someone sort it out without suggesting I need to delete the contents of my hard drive!

Clearing all cookies is unacceptable. Shame on you for even suggesting this as a solution.

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue. Nothing I've read here or elsewhere works for me either. I have to reopen all the tabs I want open on launch manually. I use these tabs to help manage my podcast - social media, content, track stats, etc. Looking forward to a resolution, or I may just have to remove ABP all together and get something different.

Cleared everything in MS Edge History except passwords. First time not everything cleared. Second time it did. ABP problem went away.

Still think that a new version of ABP is needed so that people don't have to do this at all.
