广告可能是整个星球上最烦人的事情，而不仅仅是互联网。比你的前任(Way)更粘人，无论你在万维网上走到哪里，他们都会跟着你。虽然网页上的广告仍然可以容忍，但在YouTube视频之前播放的广告可能会让人非常恼火。幸运的是，它们中的大多数可以在几秒钟后跳过（准确地说是 5 秒）。但是，有些必须完整观看。
几年前，人们不得不摆弄网站的JavaScript才能摆脱广告。现在，有多个浏览器扩展程序可以为您做到这一点。在所有广告拦截应用程序中，Adblock可能是最受欢迎的。Adblock会自动屏蔽网络上的所有广告，为您提供更好的浏览体验。
然而，在谷歌(Google)最近改变政策之后，Adblock在阻止(Adblock)YouTube 上(YouTube)的视频前或视频中间广告方面并没有那么成功。我们在下面解释了几种修复 Adblock 无法解决 YouTube 问题的方法。(fix Adblock not working on the YouTube issue.)
为什么广告很重要？(Why are Ads important?)
取决于你落在创意市场的哪一边，你要么喜欢广告，要么绝对讨厌它们。对于 YouTube 用户和博主等内容创作者来说，广告是主要的收入来源。对于内容消费者来说，广告只不过是一种轻微的干扰。
仅专注于YouTube，您最喜欢的创作者将根据广告获得的点击次数、特定广告的观看时间等获得报酬。YouTube是一项所有人都可以免费使用的服务（YouTube Premium和Red内容除外），仅依靠广告在其平台上向创作者付款。老实说，对于数十亿的免费视频，YouTube 不时(YouTube)提供几个广告，这不仅仅是一个公平的交易。
因此，虽然您可能喜欢使用广告拦截器并在没有任何烦人广告的情况下消费内容，但它们也可能导致您最喜欢的创作者赚取的钱比他们的努力应得的少。
YouTube 于去年12 月(December)改变了其政策，以应对广告拦截器使用的增加。政策变更旨在完全禁止使用广告拦截器，甚至阻止使用它们的用户帐户。虽然尚未报告此类禁令，但您可能需要保持警惕。
我们在疑难解答方面也严重依赖您在我们网页上看到的广告所产生的收入。没有它们，我们将无法为读者提供同样数量的免费How-Tos和技术难题指南。
考虑限制广告拦截器的使用或将其从您的网络浏览器中完全删除，以支持您最喜爱的 YouTube 创作者、博主、网站；并允许他们做他们喜欢做的事，以换取他们完全免费为您提供的丰富而有趣的内容。
如何修复 Adblock 不再适用于 YouTube 问题？(How to fix Adblock no longer working on the YouTube issue?)
让Adblock再次在YouTube上运行非常简单。由于广告主要与您的Google帐户（您的搜索历史记录）相关联，您可以尝试注销并重新登录，暂时禁用Adblock，然后重新启用或更新Adblock的过滤器列表。如果问题是由于扩展程序中的错误引起的，则必须一起重新安装。
方法 1：退出并重新登录您的 YouTube 帐户

Fix Adblock No Longer Working on YouTube
Ads might be the single most annоying thing on the entire рlanet and not just the internet. Way more clingy than your ex, they follow you everywhere уou go on the world wide web. While ads on webpages are still tolerable, the ads that play before YouTυbe videos can be quite infuriating. Fortunatеly, most of them can be skipped after a couple of seconds (5 to be precise). However, some have to be watсhed in theіr entirety.
A couple of years ago, one would have to fiddle with the JavaScript of a website to get rid of ads. Now, there are multiple browser extensions that do it for you. Out of all ad-blocking applications, Adblock is perhaps the most popular. Adblock automatically blocks all the ads on the web to provide you with a better browsing experience.
However, after the recent policy change by Google, Adblock hasn’t been all that successful in blocking the pre-video or the mid-video ads on YouTube. We have explained below a couple of methods to fix Adblock not working on the YouTube issue.
Why are Ads important?
Depending on which side of the creative market you fall on, you either love ads or absolutely hate them. For content creators, like YouTubers and bloggers, ads serve as the primary source of revenue. As for content consumers, ads are nothing more than a slight distraction.
Only concentrating on YouTube, your favorite creators are paid based on the number of clicks received on an ad, watch time of a particular ad, etc. YouTube, being a free to use service by all (except for YouTube Premium and Red content), relies solely on ads to pay the creators on its platform. To be honest, for the billions of free videos, YouTube offers a couple of ads every now and then is more than a fair bargain.
So while you might enjoy using ad blockers and consuming content without any annoying ads, they can also be the cause for your favorite creator earning way less money than the person deserves for their efforts.
YouTube, as a counter to the rising use of ad blockers, changed its policy back in December of last year. The policy change intends to ban the usage of ad blockers completely and even block the user accounts that utilize them. While no such bans have yet been reported, you might want to stay aware.
We, at troubleshooter, also rely heavily on the revenue generated by the ads you see on our webpages. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to provide our readers with the same number of free How-Tos and guides to their tech conundrums.
Consider limiting the usage of ad blockers or completely removing them from your web browsers to support your favorite YouTube creators, bloggers, websites; and allow them to do what they love in exchange for the rich & entertaining content they provide you for absolutely no cost.
How to fix Adblock no longer working on the YouTube issue?
Getting Adblock to work on YouTube again is quite simple. Since ads are mostly associated with your Google account (your search history), you can try to log out and back into it, temporarily disable Adblock and then re-enable or update Adblock’s filter list. If the issue is caused due to a bug in the extension, you will have to reinstall it all together.
Method 1: Log out and back into your YouTube Account
Before we move to methods that involve messing with the Adblock extension, try signing out of your YouTube account and then back in. This has been reported to solve the issue for some users, so you might as well give it a shot.
1. Start by opening https://www.youtube.com/ in a new tab in the concerned browser.
If you already have any YouTube subpage or video open in an existing tab, click on the YouTube logo present at the left corner of the webpage to return to YouTube home.
2. Click on your circular profile/account icon at the top-right corner to access various accounts and YouTube options.
3. From the ensuing accounts menu, click on Sign Out and close the tab. Go ahead and also close your browser.
4. Relaunch the browser, type youtube.com in the address bar, and press enter.
5. This time around, at the top-right corner of the webpage, you should see a Sign In button. Simply click on it and enter your account credentials (mail address and password) on the following page and press enter to sign back into your YouTube account.
6. Click on a few random videos to verify if Adblock has started blocking ads again or not.

Method 2: Disable & Re-enable Adblock extension
Nothing fixes tech problems like the evergreen turn off and back on again method. The changed YouTube policy has been playing unskippable ads on browsers equipped with Adblock. While individuals that aren’t using Adblock only have to deal with skippable ads. A simple solution to this impartiality by YouTube is to disable Adblock for a short period of time and then re-enable it later.
For Google Chrome users:
1. As obvious, start by launching the browser application and click on the three vertical dots (or three horizontal bars, depending on the Chrome version) present at the top-right corner of the browser window.
2. In the ensuing drop-down menu, hover your mouse over the More Tools option to open a sub-menu.
3. From the More Tools sub-menu, click on Extensions.
(You can also access your Google Chrome extensions by visiting by the following URL chrome://extensions/)
4. Finally, locate your Adblock extension and disable it by clicking on the toggle switch next to it.
For Microsoft Edge users:
1. Similar to Chrome, click on the three horizontal dots at the top-right of the window and select Extensions from the drop-down menu. (or type edge://extensions/ in the URL bar and press enter)
2. Disable Adblock by toggling the switch to off.
For Mozilla Firefox users:
1. Click on the three horizontal bars at the top-right and then select Add-ons from the options menu. Alternatively, you can press the keyboard combination Ctrl + Shift + A to access the Add-ons page on your Firefox browser. (Or visit the following URL about:addons)
2. Switch to the Extensions section and disable Adblock by clicking on the enable-disable toggle switch.
Method 3: Update or Reinstall Adblock to the latest version
It is quite possible that Adblock not working on YouTube is due to an inherent bug in a certain build of the extension. In that case, the developers have likely released a new version with the bug fixed and all you need to do is update to it.
By default, all browser extensions are updated automatically. However, you can also update them manually through your browser’s extension store.
1. Follow the steps explained in the previous method and land yourself on the Extensions page of your respective web browser.
2. Click on the Remove (or Uninstall) button next to Adblock and confirm your action if asked to.
3. Visit the extension store/website (Chrome Web Store for Google Chrome ) of your browser application and search for Adblock.
4. Click on the ‘Add to *browser*’ or the install button to equip your browser with the extension.
Once done, see if you’re able to fix Adblock not working with the YouTube issue, if not, then continue with the next method.

Method 4: Update Adblock Filter List
Adblock, like other ad-blocking extensions, maintains a set of rules to determine what should be blocked and what shouldn’t. This set of rules is known as the filter list. The list is updated automatically to adjust if a particular website changes its structure. The change in the YouTube policy was most likely accommodated by a change in its underlying structure.
To manually update Adblock’s filter list:
1. Locate the Adblock extension icon on your browser toolbar (usually present at the top-right corner of the browser window) and click on it.
In newer versions of Chrome, all extensions can be found by clicking on the jigsaw puzzle icon.
2. Select Options from the drop-down that follows.
3. Switch to the Filter lists page/tab from the left panel.
4. Finally, click on the red Update Now button present next to ‘I will fetch updates automatically; you can also’
5. Wait for the Adblock extension to update its filter list and then close the Adblock Options tab.
6. Restart your computer.
Once restarted, open your web browser and visit YouTube. Click on a random video and check if any ads still run before the video starts to play.
