  1. Pop-up adverts have suddenly started to come up on my computer screen again.


    I have a problem that I need a definitive answer to so I can stop it straight away.The problem I have hasn’t raised its ugly head for ages, so I thought I had it under control. I wonder whether I accidentally set it somewhere to cause it to return.I am starting to get advertising pop-ups on the bottom right-hand side of my computer screen. Is there a setting anywhere that I may have inadvertently changed to allow these pop-ups to come up again? If this is the case, can anybody tell me where this setting may be so I can change it back to stop the pop-ups coming up altogether?Thank youHB

    :)

    Pop Up Adverts

    How to stop pop up adverts bottom right hand corner of the windows screen. I Keep getting a pop up advert from Nero Burning software that cannot be closed as it generates a script error. Makes me feel like the computer and operating system I bought really
    belongs to someone else as I am not allowed to control it

    pop ups and adverts on windows 10

    Depends which Internet Browser is affected, but for a start type 'pop-ups' in the Search box on the Windows Desktop Task Bar, and you should see the Control Panel icon for 'Block or allow Pop-ups' appear in the list. Click on that to launch the Settings
    screen and make sure the 'Turn on Pop-up Blocker' entry is ticked.

    If that doesn't improve things sufficiently you may need to consider installing an extension for your Browser to block pop-up adverts, although you do have to be aware that some of these can also block 'legitimate' pop-ups that you really need to see, such
    as those used by some online banking and shopping sites, unless you are able to 'white list' those sites you want to be able to display pop-ups.
