Twitch has recently applied a new ad policy that might be good for the company and streamers, but on the other side, it is highly criticized by the audience. That is why some people start working on Twitch adblockers, but they sometimes don’t even work. If you are also facing the “Twitch Adblock not working” error, keep reading because we got you covered!

Simply go to your browser’s extension library and type “Twitch adblocker” into the search box. Click the one that you want to try out and enable it to see if you are still facing the “Twitch Adblock not working” issue. You can try every extension until you find the one that fixes the problem. However, try to use the ones with the highest reviews so that you will be safe.

Try another browser

The last thing that you can try is changing your browser. If you are already using two different browsers, simply try out the other one and see if the issue persists. You will also be able to try different extensions on these browsers.

If you are using only one browser, go to Google and type another browser’s name, like Opera, Chrome, Brave, or Arc. Try using the adblocker extensions on these browsers and see if the issue is gone once and for all. Some browsers, like Opera, have built-in adblockers. You can also try them out if it changes anything.
