How to set off computer screen ads
While using a computer, we are often disturbed by pop-up ads. Not only do these ads take up our time, but they can also contain malware that threatens the security of our computers. So, how do you turn off these annoying computer screen ads? This article will give you detailed steps to set up and help you stay away from ads.
1. Browser ad blocking settings.
Open your browser, find the three-bar in the upper right corner and click it to open the drop-down menu.
Find "Settings" or "Options" in the drop-down menu and click on it to enter the browser settings page.
In the settings page, find the "Content***" or "Ads***" option and make sure it's turned on. This effectively blocks pop-up and banner ads.
If you're using some third-party browsers, you may need to install additional plug-ins or extensions to enable ad blocking.
2. Operating system ad blocking settings.
Open the Start menu, enter Action Center in the search bar, and open.
Find the "Security & Maintenance" option in the Action Center and click on it.
In the Security & Maintenance screen, find the Windows Defender Firewall option and click on Settings.
In the firewall settings, make sure that the "Block all incoming connections" option is enabled. This can help stop the spread of malware and ad pop-ups.
In addition, you can update your system and install patches through Windows Update in the Control Panel to ensure that your operating system is secure and stable.
3. Software ad blocking settings.
Open the software, find the Settings or Options menu and click Enter.
Find the "Ad Display" or "Push Notifications" option in the settings and turn off the relevant features. This effectively reduces the display of advertisements inside the software.
For some software that can't turn off ads, you can try using third-party software or tools to disable ad pop-ups. For example, use the Process Explorer tool to disable related processes and services, or use anti-malware software to remove malware and adware plugins.
For some common adware, such as Flash Player and J**A Runtime Environment (JRE), you may need to update them regularly to ensure a safe and stable experience.
