Windows 10: How do I block ads?

Someone recommended Firefox. I don't want to change from Edge. I am tired of this one advertiser who keeps distracting me with moving information and there is never an X in the upper right corner. I contacted the advertiser and haven't heard anything. You'd think they'd want to stop me from blocking ads entirely by letting me see ads that are less distracting. No, don't tell me you need to get my attention. You'll get my attention, all right. I'll never do business with you.

Blocking Ads

I try to use Microsoft Edge, but the bombardment of ads is far beyond ridiculous...especially the most obnoxious AdChoices video ads. I clicked the AdChoices icon on the top right corner of an ad and went to the options page. I was unable to block many
ads provided by a large number of companies. In the help section, it was suggested that enabling all third party cookies would allow the opt out page to opt out of all ads. I allowed all cookies but the opt out page was unable to opt me out of many ads and
ad providing companies. What is the solution to blocking ads in Microsoft Edge? I ESPECIALLY need to block the video ads by AdChoices. Many of the video ads by AdChoices cannot be stopped once they start running. This actually slowly but surely eats more
of my data, thereby COSTING ME MY HARD EARNED MONEY. Please provide the information I need so I do not have to use another browser other than Edge. I want to use Edge, but the ads are killing me. Literally killing me.
