AdBlock is a browser extension for the Google Chrome, Apple Safari, Firefox, Opera, and Microsoft Edge web browsers that filter content and block ad, from being displayed. It works with most of the websites and can be used by Twitch users. If you are a Twitch user and want to bloc ads or if your AdBlock is not working on Twitch this article will teach you How to Get AdBlock to Work on Twitch.
If your AdBlock extension is not working, there are several reasons but first, you need to make sure that your extension is installed properly and enable the feature to block ad.
To enable the feature on Twitch:
- From your AdBlock main menu select gear icon to open the Options page.
- Click on “Enable hiding of streaming ads on Twitch” to enable, it should be under the General Options.
Please keep that in mind:
- You will still see an occasional ad because it is difficult for any blocker to block ads on Twitch because the blocker may not be able to catch every single ad before you see so just refresh the eliminate them.
- Pausing and whitelisting may not work while blocking the ads.
Let’s begin to see other methods.

Restart the browser and Check if the problem is resolved
