How To Fix Adblock is not working on Twitch?

Here, I have given some methods to block Twitch ads. Follow them.

Method 1 – Update Adblock:

Many users use Adblock to block ads on Twitch. But, Twitch is not letting Adblock block ads. To solve the issue Adblock has also updated its version. Try to update Adblock and see if it block ads on Twitch or not. To do so:

8.Restart Chrome.

Method 2 – Change Adblock Settings:

Sometimes Adblock extensions start blocking ads automatically as soon as they are installed. But, sometimes it needs a manual change in settings before they start blocking Twitch ads. Follow the procedure below to change the settings of the Adblock extension on Chrome to make it block Twitch ads.

Method 3 – Change Advanced Chrome Settings:

If the two above methods do not work, then a little change in the advanced Chrome settings can fix it. To do so:

1.Open Chrome.
2.Type chrome://flags in the address bar.
3.Press Enter to open Chrome Flags.
5.In the flags search bar, type Network Service and press Enter.
6.Disable the Runs network service in-process and Data reduction proxy with network service options that appear on your screen.
7.Save the changes before restarting Chrome.

Method 4 – Try Alternate Player:

Alternate player is an extension for Twitch. It stops most of the ads from the live streams. By using this extension, you can broadcast live streams on any media player like VLC Media Player or MX player.

This extension can be downloaded on any browser like Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.

Method 5 – Skip Twitch Ads On Android:

Twitch also has an Android app. You can stream Twitch on any Android device rather than using the browser. When an ad appears on the Twitch app, simply press the Learn More option in the upper right corner of the media player. After doing that, immediately tap on the back button. This will skip the entire ad on the live stream.
