Want to throw laptop out of the window - AIBU (or stupid)

[Jemima232]

Help.

I cannot make AdBlock Plus work. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.

When it doesn't, I have no idea how to make it work again. Am having big thoughts regarding flinging laptop out of the window.

Rather than doing that perhaps someone can enlighten me.

TIA

Have you tried turning it off and turning it on again? :-p

@P1ainJanine

Thank you. It has suddenly started working again, as is the way of these things.

I turned it on and off six times.

Have you checked for any software or windows updates ?

I prefer Ublock origin

Has this been happening for some time, or is it just once or twice recently?
If it has only happened a couple of times in the last week or so I'd wait - it might be a problem with a recent update, and will probably be sorted.

If it's been happening a lot or over a long period of time my first suggestion would be to uninstall it, then reinstall.

Thanks to all for comments.

For it's own reasons it's sprung back into life.

I don't understand but hey ho.

Change to Ublock Origin, it's better anyway!

Thank you @Nearlythere1
