From approximately two weeks I’m observing that when I use my internet browser for internet surfing, too many pop-ups are coming, which is very annoying. What can I do to reduce these pop-ups while using the browser?
Follow the steps below to stop pop up messages in chrome-
• Open Chrome.
• Open the more setting menu by tapping the three vertical dots present at the top right corner.
• Tap on settings in the drop-down menu that appears.
• Tap on ‘site settings.’
• Click on ‘Pop-ups and redirects.’
• Turn off the toggle to ‘Block.’
• Now in ‘site settings’, click on ‘Ads.’
• Toggle off it to ‘Block ads from sites that show intrusive or misleading ads.’
Now you are free from those pop-ups.
The different popups appearing on your browser as you visit websites depend on the website you visit. It is their own way of monetizing their traffic. Monetization on websites is very important as it helps cover operational cost. If you are annoyed of the unwanted popups and you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer, try resetting the browser’s settings.
Click “Start,” “Control Panel,” “Network and Internet Connections” then “Internet Options.” In “Internet Properties” window, go to “Advanced” tab then click “Reset” at the bottom under “Reset Internet Explorer settings.” On the next screen, click “Reset.” Try also using other browsers or update your browser.
